Motorways - I had a good think about this one in the 5 hours I spent on them last night
People with no lane discipline - especially the 3 feckers dawdling at 50 mph in lane 3(of 4) of the A2 the other day which caused the traffic to back up for several miles as everyone squeezed in to lane 4 to pass them. Myself and a few others simply passed them in lane 1 - there was nothing in lane 2
Motorway advisory speed warnings which are displayed for no reason. You know the ones, 10 miles of *40* then *end* and in between you might see 2 other cars and a truck
Drivers who don't overtake, instead they hover in the next lane with their front bumper lined up with your rear bumper, they especially seem to enjoy doing this as your gaining on a truck and will need to pull out. Generally they don't give you any room when you indicate.
Drivers who speed up when you go to pass them. This is especially noticeable if you're using cruise control, I even had a fecking police car do it to me once
Drivers who have no sense of anticipation - they're the ones who'll be doing 70 in a lane, get behind a truck, then brake till they're doing <60 and then indicate to change lanes. It's almost as if they never saw the truck till the last second. This one is less of an annoyance though as using a bit more anticipation than them you can give them the space they need to pull out before they even realise they need to.
Idiots who swerve at the last minute across lanes to get onto the slip road
Selfish pricks who'll drive past a long queue to leave the motorway and then hold up lane 2 when they try and push in at the last minute
Morons who'll pass you, pull back into your lane then brake cause they're leaving the motorway meaning you've got to overtake them.
Pointless braking on the motorway
