Prius and Minivans.

The rubber neckers. Looking over at the scene of an accident and slowing down to 20mph to get a good look. Even when there is someone getting a ticket these people will slow down and look, and continue looking, either turning their heads or looking through the mirrors, even when they have passed the incident. Slowing all the traffic down. I freakin' hate it. I don't know how many times I've been late to work due to this sole reason. It takes me 30mins to get to work and I always leave an hour early to avoid this. If there is an accident I will be cutting it real close, and if there is nothing on the freeway then I'm at least 30mins early.

Also, that one idiot in the front of the pack going 60mph in a 65mph zone, not moving over to let the 100 followers he has accumulated pass.

And to avoid all this I just started riding. My very first bike 2014 Ninja 300 SE w/ ABS. Lane splitting is legal in CA so now I LOL at all these idiots.

For us Colorado peeps it's Subaru's.

1. They all think their Stage 1 OTS mapped car is faster than anything out there.
2. They always, always try to instigate a race.
3. There are too many of them!
4. 99.9% of the super loud ones are also super slow.
5. They like to pull the pace in the blindspot move, then floor it past in the right lane and continue running through traffic at 100+ to 'get away'.

I had a 02 Z06, loved driving that thing in traffic. It was bone stock, lowered .5". But, traffic would just part and let me through, cars would get out of the fast lane to let me by. Children would wave from the side of the road as I drove by. People pulling up beside me and taking pictures while I was driving. I could get clocked, by the police, driving 20 over, and just get a flash of his lights. It was driving a big American flag.

Now with my evox, everybody hates me, but not as much as they do when I drive my semi. Which cars annoy me? Hybrids!!

See, that's the thing. I'm older, 42, and if I drove like an idiot in the Z06, I got a thumbs up, smiles and waves. In the evox, or even Gti, accelerating to merge will get me the bird.

I wouldn't say drive like an idiot, but it's hard to get mad at a corvette doing what it's capable of doing. As far as the other cars, most people just don't know what they are/are capable of.

Anything with a rattle can that just sounds terrible when it drives by. I respect all cars, just keep them clean and sounding good!

Motocycle riders... Now, the ones that just ride and cruise, I have no problems with them. Its the ones that cut off drivers, fly by in the center of 2 lanes, and the ones weaving around traffic at 40+ what the speed limit is. And people wonder why they are in accidents. Now, I know lots of times cars pull out in front of them because "they didnt see them", but sometimes they do it to themselves as well.

Any car that decides to drive in the emergency lane to drive pass stopped traffic.

Cars that tailgate when Im going 10-15 miles above the speed limit passing other carsin the slower lane.

For the longest time, it's been Prius drivers driving 85..on the phone! Lately it's FR-S/BRZ drivers and 3 series drivers AKA buttholes on wheels!

People talking/texting on their phones and NOT paying attention to the road at all. I actually saw a lady flip her car on a exit ramp because she was talking on her phone and driving way to fast. And yes, I pulled over and called 911. She was perfectly fine (seat belt). The car was upside down though. Crazy.
