My most blood pressure raising "peeve" is a person that makes a left-hand turn on a 2 lane road(county or state) and instead of hugging the yellow/center line, they hug the white line/far right of the road so you can't even pass them on the R/H side while they wait on 15-20 oncoming vehicles to turn left Angry. Just my thoughts this evening.

Or when there is a center turn lane and they slow down in the travel lane and half turn into the center turn lane and stop, blocking both lanes!!!!

That's a bad one for sure! My current one is when you have to be buyer and seller too,, ad says trades welcome , you ask what are you interested in? I don't know what have you got?   What's the asking price? I don't know what do you think it's worth? Ok tell them , oh no sew and see says its worth much more,,, yeah goodbuy

Somebody that passes you on a two lane road just to get ahead of you and then turns in less than a block.

Ouch was right you see I was on my street bike but I saw the car slowing down and something told me to start braking and then when SHE started turning into my path I went to full lock on the brakes. Never knew you could lock both front and rear brakes on pavement making two very nice skid marks for the last 50 or so feet before hitting her in the rear wheel well. I was maybe going less than 20mph on impact. Bikes windshield kept me from going over the bars but I did break it and bent the bars, flattened the tire, bent the rim and twisted the forks..but I walked away.πŸ‘

 My biggest peeve is somebody driving in the "passing lane" for miles even  tho is is illegal and posted all over NM and Texas. Road signs say,,,"Left Lane for Passing Only".  When there is traffic in right lane,,,,you can't do chit for these idiots tiein up the passing lane,,,PFFfttttt,,,

someone up ahead pulls out in front of you and then doesn't even drive the speed limit. and then when you pull out to pass they speed up.
