So I'm writing a paper about classifying different kinds of drivers and google provided me with 4 kinds.

The slowpokes and religious speed limit obeys.
The slow drivers and casual speed limit obeys.
The fast and generally typical drivers.
The tailgater's and speed demons.

Any others?

The learner
The curteous driver (often more of a PITA as they dont follow the rules of the road)
The elderly driver (kills many people in their quest to find country kitchen buffet :p )

The kind who ask their co-passenger to look over their shoulder and tell for traffic everytime they change the lane...

The hesitant, indecisive drivers, who think as long as you slam on your brake itll all be ok, even if youre smack in the middle of an intersection.

Boy Racer, who considers every glance or creeping of your car to be a challenge, and will smoke your sorry ass before you even knew you were racing.

The indefensive, happy go lucky, head in the clouds drivers who always think that everyone else will follow all rules perfectly, and therefore drives as if the paint, signs and lights are actually going to stop cars dead in their tracks.

The cell phone chatting SUV drivers who don't check their blind spots, because they are too stupid too, or don't care to. It doesnt matter to them - you're the one getting steamrolled.

The wannabe road rager who will finger you through the window, may even shout something, but only does so because he believes a pane of glass and a little bit of sheet metal is an impenetrable barrier.

The real life, murderous road rager, who WILL run you off the road, drag you out of your flipped car, and beat you to death with his bare hands, if he perceives you to have offended him or his ride in any small way whatsoever.

The lead foot, who truely believes in his heart that every horse under the hood needs to be flogged in any given situation.

The tailgater extraordinaire, who thinks that pushing within 2 feet of you at 75mph will actually get you to speed up, rather than slow down. And usually has the dents to prove it.

The smug, "super safe" drivers who are more of a road hazard than anyone else, and believes that the mere possibility of the mere possiblity of getting a ticket is worth throwing away common sense. They will slam on their brakes if the light flicks yellow, causing you to swerve. They will do 50 when everyone else is doing 75.

the 'drive the same speed in the fast lane as the person to the right of them so no one can pass' driver
the 'weave around in stop-and-go traffic to no discernible benefit' driver
