My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
Default

1) Drive slow in the left lane - man is this annoying
2) Driving a high performance car - slowly, this happened yesterday CLS550 AMG in front of me doing 55 in the left lane with at least 1/4 mile between him and the car in front, man he needed to get smacked
3) Slowing down because you're on the phone - If you can't drive and talk at the same time - HANG UP!!!! Idiot
4) People who feel the need to keep 50 cars lengths distance between cars - catch up they don't bite
5) People who pick their nose while driving - nuff said
6) People who can't figure out what flashing high beams means - Hey dumbass it means: "Get the F*@# out of my way!!!"
7) People who can;t seem to find their mirrors when changing lanes - this has happened many times to me, people either getting into or out of carpool lanes that have almost hit me. You have those little shiny things on your door for more than just checking your hair dipshit.

I rather they drive slow than fast. We have BT, so we all use our phones while driving. I hate it when people don't use headset and do one hand on phone and the other the wheel thing.

I can't stand that! Especially when your car was all clean.

And I feel the same about all of those! They all drive me crazy!

I have seen people literally doing 40 mph in the left lane with a BT on the 405 - again if driving and talking is too much for your hamster mind to handle - HANG UP!!

One thing's for sure, there's at least one member here who doesn't like it when people drive with their fog lights on in non-foggy conditions!

Minivans. That's all I can say.





I have never once in my life seen a minivan driver who was a halfway decent driver.
Stupid soccer moms think they own the fuc*ing road!
