Driving is hard. It's messy. It's full of stupid people. Lots of stupid people. They do lots of stupid things, more than can really fit in an article. More than should ever fit into any article but I'm going to list my top 10 personal pet peeves about driving that really just grind my gears.

10.Bad Parking

Parking seems like a simple enough task. Sometimes we mess up and end up slightly crooked or we pull too far forward into the next space. That's OK, it's no big deal you just fix it and move on right? It's quick and easy but some people just don't care and they leave their car in whatever bizarre orientation they park in first.

9. Yielding

There are two types of people who don't know how to yield. Those who do it out of ignorance and those who just don't care. Both are equally frustrating and both are easily fixable. If you don't know what a yield sign means, I have good news. Yielding can be googled. Click here to learn all about it! http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Yielding+while+driving. If you just don't care about yielding all I can say is are the 10 or so seconds you save worth a potential accident?

8. Bicyclist who don't follow the rules

I think it's great when people choose to ride bikes over driving. It's good for the environment and it's healthy. What really irks me though are bicyclist who wants the benefits of a motor vehicle and a pedestrian. Don't come onto the street expecting to be treated like a car if your just going to run a red light. If you don't want to follow the rules of the road then stick to the sidewalk please.

7. People Who Freak Out Near Cops

Do you have drugs in the car? A dead body? A dead body with drugs in it? No? Cool then you don't have to drop five under anytime you see a police car out on the road.

6. 4 Way Stops

Four way stops are like awkwardly bumping into someone on the sidewalk. You both try and dance around each other and both of you try to move at the same time. Except now they're up to four people involved and some of them are going to go no matter what. to make matters worse you occasionally get that person who beats you to the stop but insists on waving you on even though it messes up everything.

5.Sudden Lane Switching

Oh hi there come on over. No I definitely wanted to brake hard just now. It's fine it's fine you only almost caused three separate accidents. That was totally worth it to make your exit. As we all know if you miss your exit you can never go back and I think you just have to keep driving on forever after that. Crisis averted.

4. Slow Acceleration

Pro tip: if a semi or other large motor vehicle can out accelerate you in a normal commercial vehicle, reevaluate your life choices. I'm not saying you have to peel out like you just robbed a bank but try and reach a nice middle ground where I don't feel like getting out and pushing your car would be a faster alternative.

3. Bad Merging

One might think that if somebody wanted to drive on the highway they would need to go highway speed. How does one achieve such a feat? Lucky for you dear driver we have on ramps designed for just such a purpose. For some reason however, most people can't grasp this concept. I understand there are times you don't want to merge on full speed, like during heavy traffic but in most cases 20 under highway speed is really unacceptable. You actually make it harder for yourself trying to merge slower.

2. Wishy Washy

To speed or not to speed? The eternal question of drivers the world over whenever they get behind the wheel. Most know what kind of driver they are. Then there are some who are an unholy, irritating mix of speeding, speed limit and under speed. They also know exactly when to shift speed to be most inconvenient to you. They start going under speed limit so you want to pass them right but then just kidding I'm done with my text time to pretend I'm a NASCAR driver. And so it goes back and forth like this for time in memoriam.

1. The Bait and Switch

Imagine your driving down the street. You're happily rocking out to some sweet music, maybe enjoying a nice snack. That's when you see it. A car pulling up to merge into traffic. They look like they're just about to go but see you coming so they stop. Nothing to see here just keep on going. But something changes, they decide maybe you aren't going fast enough to crush them on impact or that they can go fast enough to beat you. They look you dead in the eyes, then pull out in front of you and start driving 20 mph and force you to brake so hard . This is by far one of the worst kinds of drivers to encounter in the wild.

So there they are, how many of these are on your own personal list? Which ones aren't? Share some of your own pet peeves in the comments!
