Pet Peeve? What is yours?

I know we all have several, on my way to work this morning someone set one of mine off:

Driving down a four lane road, I am in the fast lane (left lane). Driver at stop sign entering roadway turns left and immediately crosses over into the left lane (fast lane), right in front of me. There wasn't anyone in the right lane, the driver didn't have to make a immediate left turn after entering the four way, just stayed in the fast lane. WHY??????? Than the driver set off my next peeve, by driving 5 - 10 MPH under the speed limit, while staying in the fast lane. I had to pass the driver on the right hand side (slow lane).

So what is your pet peeve?

I understand that though, in my city it's against the law to ride on the sidewalk, you get fined/ticketed.

People who say Linux is the best, the only choice is linux, then use windows @ home

Same concept for Ford haters, that drive a POS.

People who drive on a busy highway with their high beams on or their fog lamps on.

Driving with the cruise control is tough here. Buttholes who seem happy to drive 45 mph on a highway until you go to pass them...then the 'race' is on. I usually just drop back behind them at a safe distance until they inevitably slow down again and repeat the procedure. I don't tailgate them because the personal injury lawyers around here live for that crap.
