I hear that... Sometimes though, (like at a four way) I wish they would run it instead of sitting there waiting for me to stop and then give them permission to go. Why do you need my consent? You were there first!
And then there is the left lane addicts on the highway... that is getting worse lately it seems.
MA has somehow failed to teach people entering the highway that they have the responsibility to yield, and it's not everyone else's job to move left... Also poor design on entrance ramps (curves too sharp to maintain merging speed) contributes to this. Maybe they're starting to get the idea though. The 24/44 area is a big improvement!

Merging is the worst, no-one knows the rules of the road. I tow a trailer for work and its very difficult to slow?stop quickly. These people dart right out in front of you doing 40 mph while traffic is doing 65, and I get the finger. Another thing I can't stand is when there is construction or an accident, everyone is merging right to get around it and a guy blows up the outside lane and tries to cut in 20 cars ahead of you. Hey, I have to wait in line why do you get to blow by and not wait. Truly the worst part go my job is the traveling.

Sadly most of the younger drivers don't know the rules of the road.
Many learned to drive from playing stupid video games, so that's where they got their driving skills and etiquette.
We've all seen the a-hole that speeds up to get one car closer to a light, stop sign or traffic jam.
Then there's the a-clowns that never learned what the indicator lever on the steering column is for.
Then there's the accident-waiting-to-happen that loves to stop and THEN signal where they are going.
And as mentioned earlier, the total buttwads that don't know what MERGE and YIELD mean (let alone know how to spell it).
All I can say is thankfully I care more about my truck than these social rejects do about their POS jalopies and their luxury rentals
(you REALLY think these idiots are smart enough to be able to afford a BMW, AUDI or LEXUS???)
