I've had dreams where I have a button on my dash I can push that sends a Sidewinder missile right up their tailpipe!!! In Germany you NEVER see people in the left lane unless they are actively passing. Why couldn't we enact that law here???

Of the choices shown, it's left lane riders. My biggest pet peeve is probably people that don't know how to merge, especially when they are in front of me. How difficult is it to check out traffic WHILE you are coming around the ramp and adjust your speed to get in to the open gap? I just love these people that stop dead at the last minute to have a look and see if it's OK to go.

The blinker thing bugs the crap out of me as well, but I just blow by them and that eliminates the problem. If they are in the left lane with the left blinker on I might have to run them off the road. I could put on my "High Beams" to get him/her to move and then we would have three of the four items in the poll covered.

Happy Firday from a cool, cloudy, rainy and windy Wisconsin.
