use your turn signal morans, idk care about the reasons why you dont. people behind you have no idea of your intentions. everyone just change lanes here like assholes and trust me it's better for everyone if you just do what you're supposed to.

Washington Drivers do all of these things AND drive 10 miles UNDER the speed limit.
No, that's the 30,000 Californians moving here every year that panic when water falls from the sky. Washington drivers ride your ass in the left lane til you move right, get ten feet past you, and also move right and slow down to the speed limit because they've got another dipshit on their ass.
And we only do this because of the Oregonians that will do 62mph precisely in the leftmost lane and we're all too passive-aggressive-polite to use the horn.
Unless you're one of those people who mean D.C., but that'd be more like 20 over.
All I know is I've been in far too many close calls up here with jackasses on cell phones who don't signal, don't plan ahead(Hey I want to eventually turn right, so I'm gonna stay in the left lane till the last possible second and scream over), and have fucking panic attacks when a single rain drop hits the ground.
There was a dude arrested recently for having a professional grade cell phone jammer in his car. He is my personal hero.
EDIT: Canada had a reality TV show called Canada's Worst Drivers, where if you won, you got a trophy saying you are the worst driver in Canada. We need one of these for the US.
ugh yeah fuck those guys
Posted from my LG G2
I live in downtown DC; the only people who can match me about daily driving habits bitching are people in LA.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/...e2a_story.html
Having personally driven in LA, San Fran, Sacremento, other parts of Cali, Las Vegas, the highways between cities in the western US, various countries in the South Pacific, and all over Western Canada, I can safely say that driving in Vancouver, with all the fucking moronic Vancouver drivers, has been the worst driven experience in my life thus far. No contest.
Albeit, I haven't had a chance to try driving in the Eastern US states, nor anywhere in Europe or Asia. Although having been driven around in India, I can also say that I would never want to drive there lol. As bad as it is here, it's fucking chaos across the ocean.

Vermont driving - Stuck behind people going 40 in a 50, pass a sign that says 50 MPH, they continue to go 40. Eventually reach a sign that says 40MPH, they slow down to 30. Go fuck your cunt with a cactus. Also, I've encountered people in VT that seem to think it's ok to make a right hand turn on a 30MPH road in town, with no blinker, and not until they come to a complete stop in the road. You don't know they're turning, they're just stopped in the middle of the road. That's less common than the speed thing though, almost everyday I drive behind people that think the speed limit is a max speed if you want to go that fast, and you can go slower if you want. To me, the speed limit is a minimum, and you go a little over if you want to go faster.
NH usually isn't too bad, most people like to drive 5-10 over
And in regards to the trucks that can't make the turns because they're poorly designed at work places. Yes that makes sense, and some of the spots at my work that people hit are poorly designed. I'll try to snag a couple photos of the signs they knock over that aren't poorly designed.
Random Image Thread XLI: Shouldn't we close the RIT thread now?
I'll do this on the bike every time if we're coming up to an intersection. People will speed up, get about 2 inches in front of me and slam their breaks so they can slow down to make their turn. If I notice this going on I'll put a lot more effort into pedaling and they'll simply have to wait until I pass said turn. Shit pisses me off when I have to slam my breaks because you didn't want to wait an extra 3 seconds. (takes a lot of energy to build up to a good cruising speed from a low one)
Along with many pet peeves others have posted, one that drives me nuts as well, is when the light turns green and for me it feels like eternity before people actually start going forward! Maybe it's just me but when i see that light turn green, my food hits the gas. But others sit there and gaze upon it for so many milliseconds. >:S
Mainly if you are the first car in line, you need to be paying attention to the light. Then the people that take their foot off the brake... wait 5 seconds... then accelerate verrrry slowly
