Re: What are some of the most obnoxious types of people?

I totally agree with you.

Motorcyclists or cyclists who weave through traffic and make it difficult to avoid hitting them. Cyclists who run red lights and hit or almost hit pedestrians crossing when the pedestrians have the right of way.

People who jaywalk on roads where it isn't expected (meaning less busy or non-city roads where cars are going faster).

People who are so desperate to get where they are going they weave in and out of lanes and tailgate.

People who get mad at you for going the speed limit.

Big trucks driving in the fast lane.

People who refuse to wait their turn at 4-way stops.

Recently, a lot more, yes. And Texas drivers seem to be worse than drivers in other places I've been. I kind of suspect that the macho Texas culture translates to driving more aggressively.

LMFAO here in Colorado we stereotype Texan drivers so much! Someone driving really poorly or over-aggressively? YUP, their plates say Texas. 9 times out of 10 they're driving a pickup too.

We've noticed New Mexico-plate cars tend to be more calm and follow posted speed limits.

Ha. That doesn't surprise me at all. I'm from Boston, and Boston has lots of bad drivers, but they aren't nearly as aggressive as Texas drivers.

I drive to a lot of different states. Can confirm, the Most Aggressive Driver award goes to Texas, with Atlanta GA as the runner up.

Texas was the only state I reliably saw the breakdown lane doubling as a passing late.

I've lived in and visited lots of parts of the US and the WORST drivers I ever saw were in the very far northern part of California near the Oregon border.

That sounds a lot like Queensland drivers.

To be honest, I think it's a worldwide (or at least nationwide) epidemic at this point.

Queenslanders will risk life and limb (and their own children) to be one space ahead. New South Wales has it's own version - they're speed demons who stake their life on their brakes. I do agree every region and country has their own driving culture, my experience is just in NSW and QLD.

Honestly, QLD drivers make me glad I didn't get through learning to drive, as even as a passenger (that includes on buses, when I manage to grab the front seat), it can be scary out there.

So basically: bad drivers.

And yes.
