Driving: Pet peeves and solutions

I think we can all agree that the left lane hogs are the most annoying of all drivers. These law abiding people wouldn't think of exceeding the speed limit and for some unknown reason think that the right hand lanes are beneath them. So there they are driving at just barely the speed limit tieing up the passing lane causing traffic to back up behind them until other drivers in frustration try passing in the other lanes.

I admit that some of them just aren't paying attention and when another driver rides their bumper for awhile they get the hint and move over, but not all of them. No, there are those drivers who smugly try to keep everyone from speeding and make the road a more dangerous place in the bargain.

Next to the left lane hogs, the most annoying drivers are found in parking lots waiting for parking places to open up. The rule should be; drive around lots until you see an opening and then pull into it, not sit and wait while someone unloads their purchases and packs their kids in the car while the rest of us looking for a parking spot and can only que up behind you. If the spot isn't open when you get to it then keep circling, and if it is open then for pity sakes pull, don't back into it, and let the rest of us keep moving.
