I hate every morning the fuckers at the bottom of Nordel, heading onto Alex fraser, that blow through the Yield sign like it's a merge sign.

+1 to the people who sticks like their whole front bumper + fender out of a parking lot or side street when waitting to turn right... like WTF... see now i have to stop to let you in...and when i slow down.. they fuckin wait for me to stop..and then turns right... FUUUUUU i am tryin to save gas...

You really should dispute that, I would love to see what part of the MVA states how many seconds you need to have your signal on for.

I have had girls tell me they notice that if they signalling people tend to speed up and not let them into the lane, strange that i've not heard this from a guy. Perhaps guys can commit and finish the lane change faster where chicks dilly dally.

I have been pulled over on highway #1 by a cop because I didn't have my turn signal on long enough before I made the lane change.:speechless:
If someone makes a safe lane change and didn't use a signal, its a waste of time and money to pull them over. There are better and less harassing things cops could be doing.
If someone cuts it a little close during a lane change regardless if the turn signal was used or not I think that they should be pulled over and issued a ticket because those are the ones that cause accidents. just my .02

I bet if you did a poll less than 50% would know the difference between the two. Instead of a triangle picture I think signs that actually say merge vs yield would make much more sense.

I hate people when they are tailgating me while their lights are aiming at your rearview mirror which blinds your eyes!
:fuuuuu:

1. Highbeamers
2. people who don't signal when changing lanes
3. people who don't signal when turning like picture
4. people who turn into my lane causing my to brake a lot and go slowly.
5. people in left lanes who drive at the same speed as the people in the right lane, HOW DO YOU NOT NOTICE THIS? CHANGE LANES MOTHER BITCH AND MAKE SURE YOU SIGNAL FIRST.

Attempting to pass someone in the right lane using the left, and they SPEED UP as you try to overtake. This happened a few times to me whenever I'm on I-5, more recently on Friday evening, when a semi truck sped up as I was passing, in the dark pissing rain near the outlets.

Also, people who last second signal making a left turn. I almost got rear-ended because some motherfucker decided to do that while slowing down (even if the guy behind me was following a bit too close).

SUVs and trucks. It get worse with their HIDs. The worst part is you cant flash them.

People drive like tards because nobody correct them. They should all be shot.

Amuse 03-27-2011 05:59 PM

Tailgaters.

death_blossom 03-27-2011 06:43 PM

I am amused that this thread veered off from the OP's original question. it has now turned into a thread of ppl complaining about idiots on the road. :troll:

bloodmack 03-27-2011 07:02 PM

people who cant keep up with the flow of traffic and people who don't signal are my biggest driving pet peeves. everyone should learn this as they get their L or N imo. http://auto.howstuffworks.com/car-dr...ns/traffic.htm

GLOW 03-27-2011 07:05 PM

-people that signal left and go right or vice versa :troll:

Mancini 03-27-2011 07:09 PM

I was just in California and it's far worse than BC.

1. I noticed that hardly anyone uses their signals. Here it's at least 50% compliance. There it's 10%.
2. There was an unnatural amount of rain coming down and visibility went lower than I've ever experienced in the daytime and early evening. Yet, on the freeway hardly anyone turned on their lights.

By comparison I almost feel like praising BC drivers.

Spidey 03-27-2011 07:10 PM

The no signalling while lane changing doesn't bug me that much as long as they are not cutting me off. It is when they are turning left and either don't or do it last minute at an intersection as I am behind them. Also, like the meme posted earlier, the right turning in an intersection without signalling pisses me off.

OT: what ticks me off the most is when drivers are driving in the middle lane AND THEY DO NOT GO INTO THE RIGHT LANE TO TURN RIGHT! THEY JUST FUCKING TURN RIGHT DIRECTLY FROM THE MIDDLE LANE! vent over.

I don't know why people get pissed at this... the limit is the same no matter which lane you are in ... 50km is 50km in the left middle and right lane... So unless the guy in the leftest lane is going 40, you really don't have the right to be mad if they are going 50-60km.

You're retarded. The left lane is the passing lane, meaning if you can't keep up, you get out of the way. You don't sit there doing 55 and hold up traffic. It's a courtesy for other drivers on the road. If you wanna talk law, you shouldn't even be driving in the passing lane in the first place, it's only used for passing. Slower traffic keep right, yea?

Please take the bus.

Dude, you are so right. I would love to be able to fit this onto my little 50cc scooter.


TypeRNammer 03-27-2011 11:36 PM

The horn they're using is the 500 dollar horn kit.

But then again, this will make people who talk on their cellphones drop their phones :troll:

Fappin 03-28-2011 02:07 AM

Hate people who drive at 30 or slower looking for the right street to turn into.

Death2Theft 03-28-2011 04:15 AM

I was telling some chick that if your lost and your going below the speed limit looking for a turn in you should turn on your hazards so people around you know. She then tells me it's illegal to use your hazards unless it's an emergency.....
