Who do you hate the most? a poll with pictures

[alecrain]

ROAD CHECKERS:
definition- idiots squeezing their cars in the tiniest gaps and changing lanes just to get through the traffic little bit faster than everyone else.


RIGHT LANE HUGGERS:
definition- idiots driving slow on the right lane



TAILGATERS:
definition- idiots driving so close behind your car that you can't even read their rego


TERRIFIED MERGERS:
definiton- idots too scared to merge at the proper speed, make everyone slow down



DISTRACTED DRIVERS:
definition- idiots reading, doing make-up, texting or talking on the phone while driving, especially on the Highway

[Kil4Collingwood]

Right lane hogs and terrified mergers have to be the most annoying they are rampant here in Victoria.
I think we would have alot less "road checkers" if we had less "right lane huggers" and people in general would drive at the speed limit, not 10-20 under it.

[montyv8]

we can only pick one?

aren't they *all* morons?

[VZKOOP]

Tailgaters - are they blind or aggressive? Either way they are accidents waiting to happen...

Me? I'm the perfect driver, you just ask me..... :

That's why I enabled the option for multiple choice _2:

[b2tf]

I basically hate everyone on the road other than me.

[3vXT]

Jerks who drive around with their high beams pointing right at my eyeballs and tailgaters.

[Tiapan]

im with B2tf!!! wouldnt it be nice to have empty roads whenever you drive, no cops or people to hit

[v8falconsrule]

distracted drivers for the win....or should that be loss?

anyways... while the others are all pricks, distracted is probably the most dangerous. i do hate tailgaters, but resting on the brake pedal at 60km/h on stretchs were they can't pass is always fun....(for me)

I wonder if your brakes find it as fun as you do?

[ROOSTA]

You forgot the 'I don't move over so you can merge safely' crowd.. Their probably my most hated..

Oh and i don't get the distracted ones picture..

Cheers,
Nik

[Gammaboy]

howabout the special olympians driving along with their freakin rear foglights on??
Or the F*&(*&wits who always seem to try to kill me when I'm on the bike? Yes, I'm looking at you, you stupid overstaying taxi driver!

Yeah true. I always move over ( if safe to do so ) to allow others to merge. Too many drivers have the wrong attitude of IM IN THIS LANE THEY CAN WAIT FOR ME TO GO PAST. Allowing others to merge keeps the flow going.

Now that $hites me bigtime. Do new cars have a light on the dash that indicates the rear foglight is on ?

[Ralliart]

every option execpt for other

[Falcon Coupe]

I can't pick a winner, i hate them all, we must not forget those who pull out in front of you in a 100 zone and are doing 45 by the time you reach them.

I couldn't decide on how to ilustrate a distracted driver so I ended up showing a scene where it caused an accident (notice the rear of the first car and the front of the green car flattened + the green one has the emergency lights on, and there is a bumper on the side)

[LPGUTE]

I hate driving at night when some people have their driving light out of adjustment. (when the driver side light beam is not lower then the passenger side.)

never had seen a rear fog light before lolz

[Elmo]

I see this most amusing distracted driver in my area, reading a book as she drives along, but whats amusing about that well she's a nurse :

I dont blame ya. Surely they must know its on.

[ROOSTA]

Oh ok i get it now.. If i was doing it my self i prob would have indicated the car zig zagging up the road.. Most distracted people let the cars wander while their attention is elsewhere..

Cheers, Nik

we have them, integrated into the taillight housing, and yes theres a light on the cluster for rear and front fogs, not only that but to turn on the rear fogs you have to pull out the light stick, (has a separate setting), so you can't accidently turn them on.

so the people that do it, obviously do it on purpose.

em all, i hate everyone on the road except myself, what i hate most is people who drive with their foot on the brake, even though they're well under the speed limit.

[VZKOOP]

One more that should have been included.......
The 'There's no way I'm letting you in' driver

[Smoke Pursuit]

Right Lane Huggers - i hate you all...

Keep left unless overtaking, or meet the bullbar of a Kenworth Truck...

[Silver Ghia]

All of the above, depending on the individual situations.

In addition:

There's the drivers who pass the traffic queues in the left lanes in peak hour traffic, then expect those having waited in the queue to let them back in. To me its just like pushing into queues when shopping or at the airport.

I also particularly hate Friday night and weekend drivers who seem to be oblivious to others around them.

Then there are the 4WD drivers that drive well over the speed limit, tailgate and expect everyone to move over for them, regardless of the fact that the RH lane traffic is moving at or over the speed limit and are also overtaking vehicles in the left lane. The 'I'm bigger than you syndrome'.

I enjoy driving best when there's no one else around getting in my way.

[Sloth]

Right lane huggers are alright, just roar up behind, jump on the horn, go past on the left and flick them the bird as you go by. Just joking.

Out of those, terrified mergers for sure. Probably because we have so many merge lanes. We have a double, 4 into 2 merge lane and it's just chaotic because of all the morons.

Another one I'll add is people that stop at the lights and leave 2 car lengths between them and the car in front. Then sometimes after traffic builds up behind they edge forward in steps so the traffic behind does the same.

[Booka]

Distracted Tailgaters = I stop at lights ect with the engine and handbrake... they crack the sh!ts coz they dont notce and come screaming to a hault. Then they try to beat me at the lights..... havent had one yet

[GTP290]

I hate when im driving my GTP and a HSV has to speed up to catch me and cut in front of me so he can show off the rear end of his car, like i really wanna see it.
