1) Persons who think they are owed by others just because they are alive.

2) Persons who can't answer a question directly (99.99999% of politicians).

3) Cashiers who can't say "thank you" when I'm giving them money!

1. As long as someone mentioned the police... I just love the fact that they can burn up the road at any speed or hit their lights just to go through a RED traffic light... and they're not going anywhere or pursuing anyone!!!

2. Today's younger generation drivers who sit so low in the seat that they can't see anything around them.

3. People who can't walk normal because their freakin' pants are practically down around their knees!
I have to admit the pants thing drives me crazy!
I also hate it when the cops come flying up behind you so "you" have to slow down to the speed limit and then they tailgate you closer than any normal person would, just waiting for you to make a mistake. Then again maybe I'm paranoid.

I had a guy tailgating me so bad on the interstate and he was eating FREAKING PIZZA the other day. I felt kinda bad because I thought his car was extremely trashed and his tire was flat or something because his car was so low on one side and then he drove past me and I saw that he was just a tad bit over weight. Like by 2 or 300 pounds.

I saw the same guy a couple of times. He drives a taurus and reads a newspaper at the same time. If I had a cup of coffee with me, he could have enjoyed some coffee on his windscreen along with that newspaper of his...grrr.

Okay, here are more... (I knew I couldn't keep it to just three!)

1. Automated phone systems! Trying to get through and speak to an actual human is almost impossible with some company's.

2. Having to enter all your information via the touch-pad on your phone, then, when a "live" person actually takes your call, they ask you for the same damn information. Why the hell did I have to do all that in the first place?!

3. Making an appointment for some service to come to your home, and they give you the "...We'll be there between 12 and 5." Gee, thanks for nothing. Could you narrow that down a little?

some of my auto related pet peeves:

~ people driving around with their hand hanging out of the sunroof (resting on the edge)... like we don't know you have a sunroof.

~ one who has to close the door with the glass (leaving finger prints behind)...

~ one who leans on my car or has to touch the finish when its dusty or dirty.


most annoying:

~ a convertible driver with the top down & windows up (windscreen optional)... (hello... put the top up and windows down)... you look like an idiot.

The price of premium gas.

People who call me while I'm driving.

The guy at the grocery store who has to slam down my trunk and put finger prints on the finish. (Use the emblem).

Agree with Andrew, my mom leaves her windows up on her 325ci all the time. I hate it and tell her to not do it but she won't listen. I also hate everyone that touches unnecessary parts on the car to get in/out and open/close the door. On the hatch when its open there is a little handle inside, its like a groove cut out. I figured you are supposed to use that to close the hatch, but at about half way down it gets kind awkward.
