People who pull out in front of you on the road when you are about 10 feet from them, causing you to slam on your brakes to avoid hitting them.
Especially when behind me there isn't another car for a mile.
Gotta save that 10 seconds!

Since I"m in a work-avoidance move today, I had written this a year or so ago and will post for your pleasure. I may already posted this here, but I'm being lazy and not checking. There is also a part 2, based on Highway driving!:
Traffic Rules #1
1) It's perfectly acceptable to cut in front of someone while driving, if you give them a "thank you" wave with one hand while you are violently steering into their lane with the other. The proactive "thank you wave" negates any bad feelings, near crashes, or heart attacks experience by the cut-off-ee due to the gesture shown by the cut-off-er.
2) It's perfectly acceptable to block an intersection. I mean, what am *I* thinking, trying to make a left hand turn onto my street?!?!?! YOU have every right to sit there, pick your nose, and yap on your cell phone while you wait for the red light to turn green. After all, if you leave too much distance between your car and the one in front of you, (say, wide enough for another car to get through!) then that just means the line up behind you is 5 feet further away from their destination! And your lane is obviously more important then the cars backing up behind me because I can't make it through.......
2 b) It's perfectly acceptable, once the light turns green, to ignore the person waiting to turn left, who's the subject of rule 2. I mean, if the person who blocked the intersection wasn't going to let me through, why should the next 20 cars? Obviously, you people are far more important then me, and must get home 5 seconds earlier........
3) It's perfectly acceptable, when you are a pedestrian, to stroll slowly across the street while jaywalking. I mean, so what if you're crossing into traffic when you shouldn't be? Why bother running across? Just take your time...... I kinda prefer to sit still and stare at the green light. It's a nice change of pace from sitting at a red light.
Oh, and I like the dirty looks you give when I try to hurry you along, by slowly approaching you in my 2 ton car, which is stopping for you.
