    It's pretty annoying when they run me over.

    All I have to say is indicate properly, dammit. As a person who has to cross roads at crossroads on regular occasions, this makes my life easier.

    Yeah, that's what annoys me about peoples driving. I got my revenge once though, when some stupid woman almost ran me over because she didn't indicate. So she had to stop, an just as she was pulling off I kicked her back door in. Their was a great big dent in it, an I took some of the paintwork off.

    STILL! 15/16 year olds SHOULD NOT be ALLOWED to drive!
    I was a better driver at 16 than I am now. Mostly because at 16, I drove very carefully, kept under speed limit, used my turn signals every single time I turned, etc.

    I would say that new drivers at 15/16 are much more careful about their driving than say college kids who have been driving for a few years and just stopped caring about a lot of the rules of driving.
    My rule STILL applies, teenagers SHOULD NOT be allowed to drive at all!

    21 and up goddammit!

    That makes no sense at all. You're a legal adult at 18 so you should be able to drive by then. I think it's perfect here in NY. Your learner's permit at 16 when a parent is in the car with you, with strict curfew, and your license at 17 if you take Drivers ED.

    You're an adult at 18, yet you can't drink.

    Same SHOULD apply to cars.

    bad driving skills start appearing around 17-19.

    An what if they have nobody else to drive them around? Do you expect them to use public transport to get everywhere until their twenty one? Do you expect them to rely on the unreliable service that is public transport?! Not all teenagers are of the same level of maturity, so it wouldn't be accurate to class them all as bad drivers because you've encountered some frivolous teens on the road.

    Most of my annoyances have been mentioned, but in addition, I hate it when people must do double the speed limit, weave in and out of traffic, while talking on the phone, and other wise driving like an ass, with their children in the car.
    If you wanna drive like a moron and kill yourself, fine. But try not to kill your kids if you can avoid it....

    I do blame the government. But until the government does make public transport better, your rule would be no good.

    I must admit, life would be a great deal easier if we had some kind of decent public transportation system to fall back on. That's been an annoyance to me for years.

    People who pull you over because you are not 'legally' allowed to drive, especially when the owner of the car doesn't 'know'. Yeah, they annoy me.

    not using turn signals.

    or using them right when they turn like they're reminding themselves they are turning. The turn signals are supposed to warn people behind you you are about to turn or move into another lane.
