Pet Peeves! We all have them what are yours?
 

We all have those specific little things that just grind at us, thought it would be nice to find out which ones bother you.

1. My big one is seeing brand spanking new trucks (company) that have bent fairings. This just kills me to see drivers who have no regard for the equipment they are driving. Saw one in Wyo about 3 months ago with fairings bent to hell, asked the driver, truck had about 15,000 miles on it and he didn't seem to care!

2. Truckstop that only offer blind side parking. I have been to a few older, smaller truckstops that the only way to get into the spot is to blindside it. Not what I would like to do after driving for 11 hours but I guess it part of the job.

3. Fuel Lane parking showerers (or restrantuers). Need I say more?

4. 2 AM Truck Stop Jake Brake users. What you have no other brakes on that truck???

Just thought I would list a few.

1-Not using turn signals when changing lanes is my biggest peeve.I don't just mean 4 wheelers but,the so called professional drivers especially when I head South.It seems to me the further South I go the more drivers refuse to signal,Texas seems to have the worst drivers for this in the whole country.
2-Billy Big Riggers,you know these types by the way they drive their company truck as fast as it can go in the truck stop parking lot or,the way they go full speed into a toll booth smoking the brakes.Another way to tell a B.B. is they are the ones you catch up to and get half way by them with your cruise on and all of the sudden the race is on.
3-fog/driving lights!!!!!!When there is traffic in front of you shut them off!!!!!iF YOU CAN SEE WITHOUT THESE YOU SHOULD NOT BE BEHIND THE WHEEL.
4-When a driver has passed you do not flash the brights,this is not only ignorant but,it is quite dangerous.If you can't turn your light switch on and off or pick up your mic,don't do anything.
5-CB'onics,when you speak try to use simple clear English like they use on the evening news,don't yell into the mic and please no echo or reverb will ever make it easier to be understood.

Change lane to allow a four wheeler onto motorway(courtesy) then only to find they accelerate up your inside not allowing you back in!(arseholes) :x

Oh, this drives me crazy! When I'm driving my pickup and merge onto the interstate with a big truck on my left, I just slow down, flash the lights, and let him get back over, especially if it's a governed company truck.

They do that over there too.........

How about when you have traffic on your left, and a car coming down the ramp? You can't move over, and as the traffic on your left passes you, you see the guy that came down the ramp go out to pass you... Then cut in front of you and hit the brakes... :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Second on the list is those DAMMED HIGH BEAMS just as I'm looking in my mirror to see if it's clear for me to move back to the right.

Third on my list is the guys that drive "castrated" trucks. They can only go about 1/4 mile an hour faster than my cruise is set. It'll take them the next 5 miles to pass me. If an emergency arrises ahead of me, they're blocking one of my "avenues of escape". If you can't GET AROUND ME and GIT R DONE... Just don't bother. If you want to pass me, go ahead and pass me. But DON'T HANG THERE LIKE SOME IDIOT 4-WHEELER..... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: My limit is 127 mph. When I pass, I make it as quick as I dare. Give me the same courtesy or don't do pass. 1/4 mph isn't going to make that much difference in your time to destination. (Of course, in the mountains, it's a bit different story. If you need the speed to climb the next hill, I'll back down for you and let you go by. Most likely pass you again half way up anyhow. In winter, I'll back it down. You may be a better driver than I am, but if not, you could lose it and take me off the road with you. I do not want you alongside me any longer than need be. Just hope I don't see you blocking my way a mile down the road.

people that eat with their mouth open :lol:

I'm with mudawg, ppl who won't use blinkers at all!! I don't have ESP

Around here there's a lot of 2 lane roads with passing lanes...I hate it when following some slow poke on the 2 lane, then when there's a passing lane he's Mario Andretti. grrrrrr

Idiots who cut you off, no turn signals used, seeing kids not wearing seatbelts and the idiots that think they can pass you on the shoulder. My list could go on and on.

Here's another one,looking down into a four wheeler to see some nit wit holding an infant on there lap.These people should be beaten about the head and neck until some sort of common sense comes to them or,until dead,whatever comes first.
