    Angry What's your pet peeve?

    Hey Everyone,

    I want to know ' What's your pet peeve? '

    I see a few posts come up now and again about what annoys people and I thought why not bring it all together. From things on the road or just life in general where you need to have a jolly good rant.

    I am sure many of you have some great stories to tell.

    People who don't know how to use "there", "their", and "they're" correctly.

    Same goes for "your" and "you're".

    People on JC contribute very little and take every opportunity to get a pointless rise out of others at every opportunity they find.

    I think your right! Their are plenty of options to find if your grammar is incorrect Like google! There always on the money.

    People who have garage sales, put cardboard signs out and then leave them for someone else to pick up. I fail to see a difference between this and littering.

    Not a pet peeve, but annoying.

    People who;
    A: Brake THEN indicate.
    B: People who indicate for 1.5km before turning, driving past several driveways/side roads before picking the one they want...

    people who sit to the left hand side of the road when turning right and vice-versa. It causes a traffic jam behind them because no-one can pass them.
    likewise, when people swing wide to turn into driveways. I've almost been collected on several occasions when attempting to pass a car turning into a driveway, when without warning they swing wide into the middle of the road cutting me off.... anyone would think they are trying to turn a b-double into their driveway....

    People who drive onto the wrong side of the road, cutting corners...

    the rule I was taught when I was learning to drive many years ago, keep to left when turning left. Keep to the right when turning right.. Simple.

    One of my pet peeves online is users who hold a grudge if they get drawn into a debate then stalk that user by trolling. There are a few people on this forum who are victims of trolls.

    People asking on a forum about what is or isn't legal. Or asking what they need to do to get a car over the pits etc...Or any question that can easily be answered on the correct site, not a car forum.

    We are members on a car forum, so we must know everything about everything....

    commsirac is the exception though.....he knows all.....

    People who pretend I don't exist when I'm on the motorbike. They see a fat guy on a 250 virago and instantly think "I bet he has amazing ninja stopping reflexes so I'll pull in front of him when he's doing 60"
