Drivers that bother me (semi-rant)

[DnetMHZ]

What really bugs me are people that have been driving for 10-20 years or more and have to look down to shift from park to drive or reverse to drive!
Stupid things like this get under my skin! I never look, just shift and go, it's not that hard!!

I wonder what would happen if they had to drive manuals...

It scares my to imagine that!

If such little things bother you, I can't wait until something really aggravating happens in your presence.

Or how about the people that have been driving for 10-20 years and think that their age automatically means they're a better driver than someone younger?

Those are the ones that irk me

I hate people that wait at a 4 way stop for you to come up and stop even when you're like 1/2 a block away. I want to get there, pause, and then go not have to wait for them to go first. They could go while I'm approaching.

It sure isn't automatic, but generally it is true.

Yeah if such little things do bother you, just wait till someone leaves their turning signal on or headlights off...ud prolly explode.

Too bad you can never trust the other jackasses on the road to actually stop. Sorry, but I'm gonna wait it out.

What's wrong with that? And as far as driving manual.. it's a lot easier to feel which gear you're in than an automatic. Especially with all these new automatic with multispeed options. I am actually glad that people would look at what gear they are in. Heck, if you are behind the guy, wouldn't you want him to be sure he's in drive than reverse?

But after so many years you should be able to do it just by feel.. I guess I'm too high strung.. b

I really don't care if people have to look to shift from part to drive. That's kind of an awkward operation in a subaru, which has a zig-zag pattern, and no lock between D and 3. The stop sign thing bugs me a little, but the one thing I have to say to just about everybody in SE MI is:



USE YOUR GOD D@MN TURN SIGNALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
