Two things that get on my nerves

I'm so glad that this thread was resurrected from the dead. Never saw it before today!

My thing that gets on my nerves. Near my house there is a hill you go down with a "off ramp" that goes to the right. However, it merges into a one lane road and the "off ramp" effectively becomes the second lane. So, there's no reason to stop or yield to oncoming traffic, because there isn't any.

At least once or twice a month I get behind someone that decides it's 100% necessary to just stop in the middle of the road there and yield to no one at all.

Just go!

You would never survive around here .. as what you have described is so minor in nature compared to what you really would have to deal with. It is all about patience ... cause the average driver is just clueless.

What you are describing is a free flow lane and mostly there are signs indicating it as such. The good thing .. is that SOME people actually do the right thing.

Myself .. if I do something stupid, I am doing it on purpose and am fully aware that I am stupid. Fortunately I don't have to resort to driving like this that often.

Oh, I know it's minor, it's just one of those "WTF are you doing?" things that just irks me. I'm sure we could all fill this thread with a zillion little things that aren't a big deal but just get under our nerves.
