What's Your Pet hate?

[Runt]

I just saw this on another site and thought you guys would have a laugh and join in if anyone gets bored. What is your pet hate???

My pet hate is the big group of cyclists that seem to be dominating our roads. It seems to be a cool fashion down our way with 30 riders sitting next to each other on dangerous 80km roads around tight bends.

They travel about 10km's an hour on major trucking routes and its only a matter of time before someone or even a group of cyclists get killed!

I'm all for using bicycles to get to work or to friends places but if its just a leisure touristy thing than please....stay to the tourist routes or bike tracks that the local government just spent 3 million on building for you guys but you have to be on the main roads so everyone can see you.

Thats my pet hate anyway...haha

Whats yours???

Nice...

My pet hate...really makes me mad is when you do good deeds on the road but are not acknowledged.

Letting someone into your lane, giving way when you don't have to, pulling over to let someone by on a tight dirt road or letting someone cross the road on foot and you wait half an hour for them to walk over or just general good things to get you in the good books and they just take it without a wave, nod or light flashing....

I get real mad when I don't get acknowledged....It's like been selfish for an unselfish act...lol

I hate extremely slow drivers. If you drive slow thats fine, pull over and let us through.

There is a road out my way that has many corners and tight bends, theres only a couple of spots to overtake.

People drive 50 in the 80km zone and when the road opens up and I finally get an opportunity to overtake they speed up....arrggh!!!

I need a cannon on my bullbar or some kind of triangular soild steel nudge off the road bar.

My pet hate is when i deliberatly leave tiny car gap in front of me when driving and people zip in front of me just so they can get home 2 seconds faster....They zip infront of you with their little rice burners and force me brake otherwise ill ran up the back of em and guess who's fault that is....Mine!

Hear you about the unregistered, unlicenced, lyra-clad holigans Runt.
And didn't you know GQ-Nut that it is because you drive a 4WD that they HAVE to get in front of you, they can't see past us when they are driving their little coffins.

My Pet Hate is the WA police force who have allowed themselves to become Tax Collectors and not Law Enforcers.
On my little 10 min drive to and from work each day I see at least a dozen breaches of our road rules (mainly not stopping at stop signs, running red lights, talking on the handheld phone) but I am lucky if I see one cop on the road every three months.

Our local hardware store is closed on Sunday's. The main day when everyone around realises they have run out of oil for the lawn mower, chain saw needs sharpening, need some bolts or paint to finish off the weekend jobs.

Sunday is the day that people do things!

Monday everyone is at work and It's a ghost town, close it down then and open up on Sunday's.

This happens to me quite a bit especially with the trailer on the back.

Extremely dangerous to try and pull up and thats bugs me too.

I like this thead....

Me...I cant stand when people call up to come look at your car when your selling it and they never turn up.

Especially when they say they will be there Sunday at 10am and you wait all day...mmmm.....makes me mad!!!

I sell cars a fair bit and i reckon this happens about 30% of the time.

Not happy Jan!

I pretty much agree with all these pet hates haha..

I hate the sods that come knocking at my door at 6:00pm trying to sell sh*it or offer some bogus 5% discount off my electricity bills. I realise they are trying to earn cash but when I say No, I mean, NO! Now piss off! :P

I also hate it when your doing 80 down a hwy, and some idiot pulls out in front of me and proceeds to drive slowly instead of getting up to speed. What's with some people?

Lastly (for now), there's never a copper around when you need one, but they are always around to pick on the size of your tyres, lift height, accessories, this that and the other. Then they pop your bonnet and shake the sh*it out of your battery so it's loose, then tell you that you have a loose battery. I'm not bitter much. I'm waiting for the day when one smashes my back light out and says.. "you got a tail light out" lol!
