Seeming to develop allergies in your 50s, that is fucking annoying.
Damn ..... yer on the rocky road to lupus.
People at a 4 way stop who stay stopped there as you pull up, and don't drive through the stop sign until you come to a complete stop. As if they think you slowing down to 5 or 10 mph means you are planning to T-bone them if they start driving. I see this all the fucking time and it's so annoying.
I just keep going.when they do that.
I got to be Car D recently at an intersection. Drives me up the fkn wall.

I see more and more traffic circles these days, which means people are getting better at using them. Slightly better. But the people that stay stopped at a 4 way until you actually stop can fuck right off.
I *probably* don't see that, that often, maybe because there are few 4 ways around here, but occasionally I see people looking like they are going to blow the stop sign then slam on the brakes last second, and look at you like, "Why you no go?" without knowing how chaotic they look driving. I don't go because instinct says don't pull in front of cars going fast, and those people suck.
yeah, I think that is what these people are thinking, that I'm going to blow the stop sign and they don't want to go through for fear of that. Except I am most definitely slowing down to stop at the sign and don't have to slam on the brakes to come to a complete stop. Admittedly, I probably would roll through the stop and not come to a complete stop if they didn't force me to do so, but there's no way I look like someone fixing to blow the stop sign to any form of decent intelligent driver.
^^Hahaha. SO true!
And then you have these guys (I'm sure this has been posted here before)...

The no, you go, is sooo pnw.
We also have the "I'm on the right, but you were at the 4-way before me, and have been stopped for 15 seconds - so you should just go. It won't even slow me down. But you won't."
Niceholes
The rules of the road are there for a reason. Just follow them. Trying to be "nice" out there isn't helping anyone.
Ive encountered many a Driver C. Not being overly cautious, but i recently had a near miss with a Tesla who was Car A that blew through the roundabout at easily over 40 mph to go straight. When i entered as Car C my sight distance showed no car coming on my left, by the time i was fully in the roundabout the tesla was coming in HOT from Car A's position, and then just barely missed the rear of my car as they flew straight through.
Basically, roundabouts produce 2 different assholes. The folks who just want to yield to everyone everywhere, and the folks who go out of their way to create close calls and impose their right-of-way on other drivers (similar to assholes who wont let you merge, or who avoid turnlane stoplight backups by cutting in at the last minute).
I deal with a roundabout like this EVERY day. The issue is one roundabout entrance (A) is an exit from an interstate and people enter this tiny roundabout too fast and just completely own everyone, it's a non-stop stream of "A' people at rush hours. If the designer of the roundabout made it so you couldn't enter it at 35mph and the made the circle bigger, this would not be a problem. I blame them.
There are a series of traffic circles now between Sedona and Village of Oak Creek. They completely mess up traffic because the tourons don't know how to deal with yielding and right of way. There are times you're better off going the long way around almost to Cottonwood if trying to get to West Sedona.
