What upsets drivers the most on the road? Is it when you signal to switch lanes, and the vehicle behind in that lane immediately speeds up to prevent you from doing so? How about after you allow the driver behind you to switch into your lane, but he does not even bother to wave to show his gratitude? Drivers who switch lanes suddenly and only turn on the indicator when they have crossed 1/2 way into your lane?

When I retire, I want to drive my car at 50kmph on the second lane at morning peak hour
That would be a bad idea because you will be driving in the bus lane, resulting in a hefty fine.
You will also be obstructing those expat cyclists hogging the left most lane during rush hour.
 
Many drivers are dangerous to pedestrians these days. No signal. No stop at zebra crossing. Stopping late at a red light and half the vehicle is over the pedestrian crossing. :rolleyes:

Maybe they all got their license from sucking the cock of the tester at the driving schools. :wink:
 
stopping distance between vehicles at lights and jams too far apart, especially when you need to get into the filter lane.

Most of these drivers were probably distracted by their mobile phones before they met with an accident. Remember that lady driver who plowed right into a stationery motorcyclist at a traffic light w/o even braking? Her eyes and brain were probably entirely focused on her phone.
 
Those push & cut into your lane with short distance causing you to brake while they could go behind instead of in front since lots of space. So, it's irritable & intentional to bully .

Abrupt lane changes are indeed annoying, but it is becoming more common during peak hours because of the constant stream of Malaysian motorcycles riding between lanes on our expressways. On many occasions, I tried to switch lanes with my indicator on well in advance, only to be prevented from doing so by many bikers who speed up. By the time my exit comes nears, I have no choice except to speed up and make a switch which appears abrupt.
 
I have lost count of the number of occasions when I waved to allow a car to switch lanes to enter in front of me, but the beneficiary did not even bother to wave to show his gratitude. Is it any wonder why most drivers refuse to give way in similar situations?
 
I have witnessed several impatient drivers in the middle lane switch to the left lane in order to then overtake vehicles occupying the centre lane because there were too many fast moving cars on the right lane. This action was taken due to impatience, and not due to any road hogging on the centre lane - just too many vehicles there.

Many lorry and pick up trucks drive slowly to work but drive very fast and speeding when they are going home
