Things People Do In Traffic That Piss You off

[Cato ED-6]

People that don't go when the light turns green.
People that don't use turn signals.
People that don't turn off their turn signals.
People that tailgate.
People that drive SUVs.
People that don't check their mirrors.
People who do stuff at the last second.
People that don't stay in their lanes.

And biggest of all: People that drive when they are drunk.

And biggest of all: People that drive when they are drunk.

QFT. Sincerely. October 12th was hit in a rental car I got because some lady rear-ended my Audi at the end of September. We were driving around on the 12th at 9:51pm, a friday, turning left from Barret Parkway onto 41 South. Kennesaw City PD car in the turn lanes opposite me hits his lights as the Turn signals go green, wait for him to clear intersection and go, looking out after him as we turn left. Left turn signal has been green for over 15 seconds, red lights on 41's traffic for significantly longer, traffic stopped in all lanes but one. I go to turn left and I still to this day remember the sound of crunching steel and shattering glass as the conversion van driven by a drunk driver blew through the redlight at 45mph and nailed the Pontiac Grand Prix that I had in the driver side door. Pushed the door in 6-7 inches, crushing the seat I was in. I was extremely lucky not to end up paralyzed from the chest down or worse, and he to this day blames me for pulling out in front of him and not looking and seeing him. He actually walked up to the car while the lady in the volvo behind us who saw the whole thing was trying to calm us down and make sure I was ok, and ASKED US WHAT HAPPENED. AS IF HE DIDN'T F'ING KNOW.

I hate drunk drivers. I go out and drink, I like drinking enough to feel inebriated in fact, I'll be honest. But I take a DD and if I have to I have waited well over two hours to wait off one beer just so I'm certain I won't endanger myself or anyone else on the road.

The other thing that goes along with this that pisses me off is people who drive while texting or reading a book or something else. That and adults who drive like ****, and then insult "kids" who drive too fast. I hate to tell these people but I'm not a kid and they drive faster than I do.
