PEEVES in DRIVING ››
When the car in front of you stops well short of the traffic lights, then slowly creeps forward, even though the light hasn't changed.
If the lights are still red, then it serves no purpose to just ebb forward and stop every couple of seconds.

Inappropriate windshield wiper speeds.
If you're at a stoplight and it's drizzling, your wipers don't need to be working so frantically that they screech across the windshield.

Driving behind someone with their blinker on for miles.
The old ladies driving on the highway, who forget to turn their blinker off as they're entering from the on ramp. And then it remains on for the next 20 miles.

People that cross the street way too slowly when I'm making a turn.
People need to walk with a purpose when they're crossing the street. Instead, I have to wait the entire duration of the green signal to turn onto another street simply because of the slow-ass walkers that, I swear, only walk slow to piss me off. Some even look directly at me as they slow down. Even worse when they cross in the middle of a street. Rule to remember: WALK with a PURPOSE.

When a gas station slows a pump down too early.
When I put $20 on pump 3, you don't need to start slowing the pump down when it hits $19.30. I am fully capable of stopping the pump in time if you slow it down at $19.90. Are you trying to make me impatient enough to just quit and you'll make a whopping 30 extra cents?

People who use their car horn as a doorbell.
Especially before dawn or late at night. Use your cellphone to call!

Cars stopped in the crosswalk
I hate having to walk around some douchebag's car because he couldn't stop before the crosswalk. Come on! You know a lot of people are walking around downtown, so show some decency.

When people still have bumper stickers, yard signs, ect. supporting a canidate/nominee far after the primary/election in which they have lost.
Hey cool Ron Paul sticker. That's great you supported him, but he was suspended from the election 6 months ago. Time to take it off. No one cares anymore.

Drivers beeping when they pull up to a location to announce their arrival.
Everyone who lives on the block can hear this. Get out of the car and knock or use the cell phone to call the occupants. There is no need to annoy the whole block!

Having to wait at a stop sign for a car that has no intention of crossing your path but can't bother to signal that intention.
It's even better when it's a four-way stop and they just sit there and play who goes first with you only to drive off on a completely opposite route from the one you've taken/are taking.

Dudes slowing down in cars to hit on you when you're crossing the street.
As if its not annoying enough to get hit on by someone in motion, they feel the need to slow down when I'm trying to J-walk behind their car as it goes past, thereby impeding my walking.

Getting a parking ticket and not removing it before driving.

When you stop driving, and all of your passengers leave the car and start walking away.
... leaving you alone to shut things down and hide valuables. This is worse the longer the trip is.

When the driver repeatedly turns to look at the passenger(s) while the car is in motion.
