Drivers around the world have different techniques when it comes to driving. Some are safer than others but in my opinion, whatever gets the job done. However, there are many drivers out there that just do things they shouldn't do when behind a wheel. This all leads to irritating other drivers which may lead to what today is known as Road Rage. So while surfing the net I came across two list of the top 10 driving pet peeves. Take a look at the list and see which one's do you agree with. Which one's are not in the list and what would you add.

2006 List

1. Distracted drivers talking on cell phones
2. Slow drivers in the fast lane
3. Pushy drivers who tailgate
4. Drivers who weave through traffic to gain one or two car lengths
5. Obnoxious drivers who speed up to keep you from changing lanes
6. Hasty drivers who change lanes without signaling
7. Road Rage
8. Motorcyclists who race down the middle of a lane, between cars
9. Women applying makeup and men shaving
10. Drivers who leave their turn signal on for miles

2007 List

1. Tailgaters
2. Road rage
3. Grooming while driving
4. No turn signals
5. Slowpokes in the fast lane
6. Driving greedy - Hogging the lane all to yourself
7. The multi-lane dash - car makes a desperate diagonal bee-line across three lanes for an exit
8. Staggering merge - traffic gets hot and heavy and one lane is forced to merge with another.
9. Meals on wheels
10. Talkahaulic: People on Cell Phone
