1.) Friends adjusting the audio settings on my radio when I'm not looking!
2.) People who touch the door around the handle when opening/closing the door (especially after i just cleaned it).
3.) People who park next to me in a huge empty lot.

1. PEOPLE WHO DRIVE IN THE PASSING LANE NEXT TO SOMEONE DRIVING LESS OR EQUAL TO THE SPEED LIMIT.

2. PEOPLE WHO DRIVE WITH THEIR BLINKERS ON OR EMERGENCY FLASHERS WHEN THEY SHOULDN'T.

3. My wife, who has been having a conversation with herself for 10 minutes, THEN starts speaking out loud to me and I'm supposed to figure out what the heck she been thinking about for 10 minutes...VERY FRUSTRATING.

4. My daughter changing the radio station in my car when she thinks I'm not looking.

Could probably add 20 more, but you said only three. Another pet peeve... people who don't listen, don't hear...ahhh.

Oops, you said three, right. OK let's remove Telemarketers.

I laughed when I read this. It really is funny to see a huge wing on a car designed to put downforce on the two wheels that do little except spin.

Geez Andrew, keeping it to three is tough. I'll have to generalize. Keep in mind each one could be broken down into dozens more.

1. The ever diminishing lack of respect, courtesy, manors, values, morals, etc.. by an ever growing number of people regardless of whether you are in your car, at the store, online, on the phone, etc...

2. Self-righteous and arrogant people who know it all.

3. Nappy-headed ho's (just kidding).

Lets see, I'll try and keep this CAR related...

(1) Really stupid bad drivers in total piece of sh*t cars who spot my Crossfire and either try and race me or think they are going to impress someone (me, their passengers, bystanders, other drivers ???) by pulling some totally nuts, dangerous risky stunt.

I love driving my X-fire but why does it seem to bring out the total nut-jobs in traffic? I've had muscle cars and sports cars before but have never seen this sort of reaction.

(2) Folks with fairly new cars who drive around for months on end with a damaged rearview mirror dangling down on their door from wires/cables etc. The gal who lives next to me for example. She's a nurse, makes good money, practically brand new Monte Carlo has a smashed mirror hanging by wires for nearly a year now !

(3) The now long lost art of actually using turn signals...

Lived in Louisiana for eight years. They have no idea what that metal stalk is coming out of the left side of the steering column.

1) Q-Tips, A.K.A really old people, who drive 20 miles UNDER the speed limit...Everywhere!!!

2) Cops who are talking on the cell phone without a headset...while we can't!!! Stupid NY Laws.

3) My Wife who gets a $105 ticket for talking on her cell phone while driving in NY state...Stupid NY State laws. Oh yeah, she always leaves the light on and the seat down in the bathroom...Gotta love her though...she can't drive the xFire because its stick!!!

That's what their heads look like while you are riding their bumper. I knew I might get some slack for that one. Please, no offense to anyone here that's 85 or older, including family members. Just an observation and not a stereotype.

Might as well add some more.
(xfire2005, did you read any previous posts before you made your first selection in post #12?)

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!
