| What's your biggest pet peeve while driving?
What's everyone's biggest annoyance when driving? Is is slow drivers in the left lane? People who leave the turn signal on? Speeders? Other drivers who are incapable of judging the speed of other cars on the road and blindly turn in front of them?
For me, while there are obviously a dozen annoyances on the road that piss me off, the one action that frustrates me the most are people who seem incapable of judging the speed of other drivers on the road. Far too often will I be driving along, when someone pulls out from the slow lane or a side street and merges right in front of me, forcing me to often put my brakes to the test. It wasn't much of an issue when I was driving smaller cars with upgraded brakes, but now that I'm driving an almost stock SUV with merely mediocre brakes, it becomes that much more dangerous. I'm usually a pretty defensive driver and try to keep an eye out for people looking to make a move such as this, but sometimes it's not possible all the time and those instances are when it becomes a danger to both myself and the other driver involved.
What about you guys?

Drivers not using their headlights at night. They don't realize that turning on the headlights also turn on the lights at the rear of the car.

People who have 2 people in their car and act like that requires them to be in the HOV lane and clog up the entire HOV lane.
Oh, any anyone in a car2go or whatever it's called. They all drive like shit

It might make me seem like an asshole, but if another driver wants to go into my lane (expecting me to yield to them, basically edging their vehicle into my lane) and doesn't use their signal lights or hand signal I will absolutely not let them in. I don't care if we were at a stop (red light) or not... 
However, if they do signal I will usually be nice and let them in.

It pisses me off even more when its a new car and it obviously has auto light control. No excuse at all.

The High Beam thing, and also people who upgrade their headlights to HID's and don't put on the proper projectors.

people who complain about other people not doing proper things on the road when they probably do something to piss off other drivers as well.

Drivers who when they turn right, they don't turn into the curb first. They go straight from the lane of traffic into a right-turn. This interrupts the flow of traffic behind them by making them brake to avoid crashing into them:
When you turn right, turn into the curb lane, then execute your right turn. This way, the traffic behind you does not need to brake.
I made a pic:

People that sit at the left lane stop light without signaling. Light turns green, you signal, now I either have to jump into the right lane or wait for you.

When people are stall parking and they have to correct themselves over 3 times. Even more amusing when it's a fucking Yaris...

cars that forget to turn on their lights at night doesn't bother me too much provided they have DRL
tthe worst is definitely turning on your left turn signals last second or when the light turns green
