Are You an Annoying Pittsburgh Driver?

I have been driving for about 9 years and found that there are many different types of annoying drivers. Here is a list of the first nine I could think of, if you think I missed an important one feel free to comment. If you are one or more of these drivers, please try to change your bad driving habits.

Instant Beepers are drivers that as soon as the light turns green they beep at you. NOTE: If you encounter one of these drivers, drive through the intersection as slow as you can.

Ambiguous Lane Choosers are drivers that drive right down the middle of two lanes or dance from lane to lane without using turn signals. What really makes me mad is when there people are driving under the speed limit, you can get around them.

Floor Pickers are drivers that are not looking at the road, but instead are looking at the floor trying to pick something up. Whatever you have just drop cannot be that important, so why don’t you just wait until you stop driving.

Pedal Pushers are drivers that rev their engines at any stop sign or light. I really hate it when it’s not even a bad ass muscle car, but instead some POS Civic.

Bass Boomers are drivers that play their music way to loud. Most of the time the bass is so loud, it sounds like it’s going to vibrate the car apart. I often wonder how there hearing is after driving around town.

Butt Flickers are divers that flick there cigarette butts out the window. I guess they don’t realize that it’s littering. My favorite is when I see someone do this, and it just blows right back in there back window.

Brake Slammers are divers that for no reason slam on there brakes in the middle of open road. I think most of the time these people are just lost and panic. Still they should really try stopping at a gas station, not the middle of the road.

Slow Pokes are drives that insist on drive 5 to 10 miles per hour under the speed limit. You will find that most of these types of drives are over the age of 65.

Cat Callers are drivers that feel it’s necessary to beep at every girl they see on the side of the road. Do they really thing anything good is going to come from this? I have never seen a girl go, “Oh Baby, Take me home!”, after a guy beeps at them.

Also I was checking out other blog on 451press and found out about a Comedy festival in South Beach. I wish Pittsburgh had something like this.

    If someone beeps at a red light before I have time to go,I get out and ask them if I can help them with something.I know they just wanted me to go because there in a hurry but hey ,I’m not.

    I like to pick up butts and flick them in there window and say hey,I think you droped this BUTTHEAD.
