Anybody who taps their brakes unnecessarily. Like on the highway going from 70-65 MPH with no one in front of them. Simply let off the gas. Or if I’m driving local and we’re both going 30, were the only cars around and they just tap the brakes randomly. Grinds my gears.

I’m always amazed at that too Strommen. Unless you’re going down a mountain your car will slow down if you just come off the gas. I honestly think the brake is like a safety blanket for some people. They gotta make sure it’s still there every 2 minutes.

You may be observing what, in some cars, is the easiest way to temporarily disengage the cruise control - tapping the brake.

Throw trash out their window :angry::mad::punch:
This one really pisses me off..... It is guaranteed that wherever you stop next will have trash cans nearby.

This is our planet to keep clean so tread-lightly applies to everything we do.

On the highway sometimes people are likely doing that but usually the braking is too erratic and occurs too consistently for someone to be using CC at all.

I use my cruise all the time, even at 25. A couple of small towns I drive thru have asshole cops who will harass you for a few miles over the speed limit. And I will brake to disengage the CC, but it's usually a brake brake not a tap brake, if that makes sense:like:

But my biggest irritant is cell phones:angry:

See it all the time on my morning commute - people driving with DRL only in the early morning. They have sufficient forward lighting but no tail lights. And these are modern cars with auto headlights.
And cell phones. Put the damn phone down and focus on piloting your 2 tons of steel, glass, and flammable liquid....:headbang: :swear: :punch:

On the freeway in the #2 lane (out of 4) when a car going slow in the #3 lane with no one in front of them moves into the #2 lane, forcing me to brake or pass on the right (#1 usually carpool). Why did you change lanes???? :angry:
