> Things that bug me:

Farmers driving tractors - you city folk won't be able to relate to this, but there is nothing worse than a farmer driving a tractor on the road when the speed limit is 55 (and they can only go 25), there are only two lanes, only 3 chances to pass in 15 miles and everytime you get to one of those places to pass, there are too many cars coming from the other direction, so you have to stay behind the tractor.

We get those idiots who brake for no reason here in the UK too.

Most of our roads are dual lane, but a lot of people hog the passing lane anyway.

Worse, we have a speed limit of 70. In practical terms this means no police involvement until 80+ and most motorway cruising is at 95+, Tailgaters at that sort of speed usually end up as roadkill if they're too late with the brakes.

Having just had my less-than-one-year-old car slammed in the backside by a large white van at an intersection I feel pretty annoyed about the whole subject!!
