Ok is it just me am I am the only one who hates when you are sitting in traffic and people that are waiting to turn and the right of way traffic people turn and use no blinker, don't you think using yhour blinker will help traffic flow better or are people that selfish that they just don't give a fuk about any one or anything that is going on around them. If I was a cop I would be giving tickets to all these Volvos, Mercadus, caddies that must be to expensive of an option to afford to put a fukk'n blinker in the dam car.

Not using the blinker period, compounded by not using the blinker and coming to a complete stop at a red light before turning right, compounded by neglecting to do either of those because you are on a cell phone are, to me, the most infuriating traffic violations.
True story, I ended up behind a co-worker on the way to work not too long ago. I caught up with her in the parking lot and said, "You better watch out, the cops will give you a ticket for that right on red you made." She said, "You can make a right on red at that intersection." I said, "Yea, but you have to stop first." And she responded, "No, if it doesn't say No Right On Red, then you treat it just like a green light. right on red means you don't have to stop first." I said, "I hope I never end being around when you're driving again."

This is no doubt one of my major pet peeves because it boils down to nothing but a combination of selfishness and laziness. How about when you are stopped at a red light in the left lane with one car and front of you and when the light turns green that moron in front of you then decides to turn on his left directional leaving you to wait for oncoming traffic to pass so he can turn. Or my favorite, sitting waiting patiently to pull out of a side street for that one car to pass when just before they go by you they make a turn with no signal. It's the epitome of stupidness, selfishness and laziness.

"uffah!!"

The more you use your BLINKER the faster the blub would wear out!!!!

Yea, but when the bulb wears out you get to use hand signals and man the looks you get when you do that. I don't think alot of people even know how to make them anymore. Last summer I lost my back left one. I went to make a left turn, stuck my arm out, and it's not short either, and the guy behind me leans on his horn and starts shouting at me. Against my better judgement, since I have my young one in the truck with me, I changed my hand signal to something resembling a right turn, however with my fingers but for one in a fist.

So true! My favorite offense is the moron who gives up right of way to let someone out of a stop sign. I've nearly slammed them in the rear.

:hihi:.. I love RowDialin'.. and I've seen the fingers... pity the blinkahs don't work.. all the horns do tho ;)..

Does the drivers test there require that you drive while holding a coffee, or a very large ice coffee, smoke a cig, carry on a cell phone conversation, and constantly yelling out the window at all the other drivers.. all at the same time, while driving?.. Seems to be the standard, when I'm there visiting and riding shotgun.. :hihi: ..but I love my relatives down there.. anything over 5 miles.. is a MAJOR trip :hihi:.. RowDialin'.. luv it...:hihi:
