My pet peeves are the people who cut in front of me real close when I'm hauling my horse trailer. Doesn't anyone realize a horse trailer can't be stopped on a dime? Mostly makes me feel bad becasue of the poor horse in the trailer getting slammed around.

Yep and an ear piercing horn that goes off in the drivers ear if they get within a certain distance of another vehicle at a certain speed.

I can't stand to be tailgated or have someone come back over in front of me in too short a distance. I have a few interesting things I do in the worst cases. I will not share them here. I don't want to start a new trend.

One place I pick up scrap in the city, I have to slow and hang a hard right intothe yard. Despite three turn indicator lights visible to them (tractor trailer) at least once a week, some one always tries to floor it and pass on the right as I am turning, hoping to pass by me before I close the gap off...forcing me to stop in the road,blocking all traffic. Put a guy up on the sidewalk two weeks ago. I have come to the conclusion it's stupidity and selfishness.

It is pretty mean spirited without being too dangerous. You know the guy who drives right up on your butt in the right lane then swerves into the left to pass on a 4 lane road? He hates me. That is all I'll say, about him or tailgaters. I do not tap the brakes on either by the way, because that is stupid. ; )
