Many of us have pet peeves that bother just us personally. However, if there’s one pet peeve that brings us together as people, it’s people who do the following while driving.

1. People driving with their dogs on their laps.

Lap dogs are not meant to sit on your lap at all times.

2. When people wear headphones while driving.

I don’t get it. If you want to listen to your iPod while driving, hook it up via Bluetooth or an AUX cord. Surround sound is better anyway.

3. Texting (or doing anything else on your phone) and driving.

I won’t get into it; you’ve heard it enough.

4. Tailgaters.

If you think I can go any faster already driving 85 MPH down the freeway, you’re mistaken. Just go around me if you’re that bothered.

5. People who don’t let you over.

OK, I’ll admit it. I don’t let a lot of people into my lane, but at least I have the common courtesy to speed by so that they can go behind me.

6. Able-bodied drivers who take handicap spaces.

It honestly makes me sad that people can be that inconsiderate.

7. People who drive with their high beams on a well-lit and populated road.

Your brights that help you see are blinding me.

8. Rubberneckers and looky loos.

It ain’t your business, and you’re just making me late.

9. Driving way below the speed limit.

There have been countless times that I have almost rammed into the back of someone’s car because they decided to go 45 MPH on a 65 MPH freeway in which everyone is driving 80 on.

10. People who walk behind my car while I’m backing out.

Yes, I am an alert driver. Yes, I am surveying my surroundings. Yes, I am looking behind me and all around me and not just relying on my rearview camera. However, I’m only human, and there is a possibility that I will not see you no matter how alert I am. Just patiently wait until I finish backing out, and then proceed walking.

11. On the same note, people who walk in front of my car while I’m driving also get on my nerves.

I know that pedestrians have the right of way, but just like it is for backing out, I may not necessarily see you. Again, just patiently wait for me to pass you or for me to stop and wave you on to cross.

12. People who don’t park within the lines.

I am aware that it’s harder to park a big truck than a small sedan, but if you can’t park your Toyota Corolla between the lines, please reevaluate your parking skills.

13. People who don’t pull into the intersection on a left turn yield.

At least pull into the intersection enough so that I can get behind you and turn on red.

14. Green light sleepers.

Come on, I have places to go and people to see.

15. On the same note, people who get bent out of shape when I honk my horn to go after the light turns green.

It doesn’t matter if I’m the second or 10th car in line, I will honk my horn. But is it necessary for you to flip me the bird?

16. Bikers and motorcyclists.

They either hog the road and/or sneak up on my blind spot and weave through traffic. I’m honestly surprised I have not hit one of them yet.

17. People who don’t wait their turn on line on the freeway entrance and exit.

Hey, dude, you’re not the only one who’s in a hurry. Do you really think you’re that much more important?
