Ten Slightly Annoying Things You Encounter When Driving

Annoying things you sometimes come across when you're driving. I'm not trying to be rude, but somethings just irritate.

Stop Signs

Now I know, of course, that stop signs have their important uses! I don't want to say that the stop sign is useless! It's a very wonderful invention. What I hate about the stop sign is that neighborhood's just cannot resist to put a stop sign at every singe street corner. Is it really necessary to have a stop sign every ten feet?

Four-Way Stops

Four way stops seem to be an enigma to many people. I think some people do not understand the concept. If you arrived at the stop sign before the person opposite you, I know this is is difficult, but it's your turn to go! Even little kids get that point - "I was here first!"

Out-of-State Drivers

Now, I'm from Houston, Texas so down here we drive fast and like to get where we are going quickly. I'm all for tourists and people coming to visit our Great state - please keep coming. However, when you are here - maybe you could go the speed limit.

School Buses and 18-Wheelers

Just because ya'll are both bigger than the other cars out there (I drive a "94 Suburban - I"m not small) doesn't mean you own the road! Remember us "little" guys.

Redneck Trucks

Really - all I have to say is could you drive through the car wash??? There is mud all over your truck! That isn't pretty.

School Zones

Ok - school zones are needed and useful and important! Don't speed through them!! There are little children going to school - watch out for them. But really, after 9 o'clock in the morning all the little kiddies are in school so do we really still need them? And people, when it's the week before Christmas or the summer kids aren't in school! You don't have to go twenty through the school zone anymore!

Speakers

Why O Why must you blast your music so loud from those speakers?? Some of us would like to be able to hear when we turn 40. You might want to be deaf by the time your 25 but have some respect for the rest of us please. Turn your radio down.

Student Drivers

Enough said...

Old Drivers

I know that as you get older things slow down - but does your car have to?? The speed limit sign is there for a reason - most of us want you to at least go the thirty five miles an hour instead of the ten miles an hour you are going. Use the gas pedal - please and thank you.

Cell Phones

I have a cell phone and yes, even though it is a horrible thing, I text/talk and drive! I know, I know. But, at least I understand that my car and the other people out there are MUCH more important that what is going on in my small cell phone world. Pay attention! You are endangering all the other people out there not paying attention.
