Readers response: What are your driving pet peeves?

When it comes to reckless driving, some specific actions can make anyone irate. 

We asked our readers what their driving pet peeves are, and the response was overwhelming. Here's what they said. 

Robyn Kay - People who don’t indicate! And people who don’t know the road rules, and red light runners.

Clay Lorraine Sumsion - People who reverse out of a car parking space at a shopping centre when you are going past and think they have the right of way!

Karen Ambrose - When I’m diligently sticking to the speed limit on the highway and they keep whizzing past me. Oh well, they can get booked and I’ll be laughing.

Barbara Belmonte - (1) motorists who leave about 2 car lengths from the car in front at traffic lights preventing those who want to turn left. (2) motorists who don't know how to use roundabouts.

Ruth Hourigan - Drivers who drive 10 to 15 km hour under the speed limit then speed up to 5km hour over the speed limit the second you come to an overtaking lane.

Dotty Weary - People who daydream at traffic lights!!!

Dorrise Humes - Drivers who have their lights on high beam in lit up areas, especially in the city.

Jo Pollock - People driving too close behind me. It just makes me slow down.

Helen Johnson - Leaving trolleys in parking bays at supermarkets.

Judi Saunders - Tailgaters and drivers who weave in and out of all lanes.

Susan Vemer - People who don't use their indicators properly!
