People who stop at roundabouts when there's not another car for two miles.
No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.
Cars with obnoxiously bright and undipped headlights are especially annoying at this time of year, some situations where I’m driving and basically can’t see if I’ve got one coming at me and one filling up my mirrors with bright light from behind.
I work on Ransomes Europark, so if I listed the bad driving habits which pissed me off in the traffic coming home from work every night I would never stop.

How is not indicating so low? The ignorance and inconsiderate actions of someone who can't be arsed to flick a plastic stick one way or another to help other people get on their day...
Interesting that the only one so far with no votes is the speeding one. I find all of these very very annoying, slow drivers being the most annoying followed by speeding drivers that sit behind you expecting you to be as much of a c*nt as they are.

This! Roundabouts are to keep the traffic flowing as much as possible at junctions. Though some people automatically stop at them. Weird and can cause accidents.

The lack of consideration of anyone else on the road. I honestly think they believe they are the only one driving a vehicle!!! 😖
I think this point encapsulates all of the listed items one way or another. My list [which will include some of the original points] is as follows and is in no particular order;-
People who stop on the "Keep Clear" boxes preventing traffic [ME!] turning right at lights [Vauxhall Bridge Road & Peckham Rye, tho the latter less so]
People driving to slow in the wrong lane; on a 3 lane motorway by all means do 50 mph if that's your choice... just do it in the left lane please
People who change lanes for no reason whatsoever; M4 from London traveling west 2 lane elevated section opens to a 3 lane motorway and there are people who move from left hand to middle lane when there's NOTHING in left hand lane
Head Lights; none, "one eyed monsters", side lights only, full beam on all time or especially at this time of year no lights during hours of darkness or those planks that think because they've got daytime running lights that it means their lights are on... er the rear ones aren't
Other lights; brake lights permanently on or not working at all, individual rear lights not working
Lack of understanding of "right of way"; overtaking of buses on narrow roads with oncoming traffic - be patient and wait!!!!!
People who drive a Prius; drive at 20mph to use the electric engine even tho limit is higher, usually stop without indicating
People who park in legitimate, but controlled, parking spaces or between other vehicles then put their hazards on... making it look like they are indicating to come out of the space
Drivers smoking weed, especially the really strong stuff that permeates my car even though I'm over 5m away
Tailgaters... especially when the vehicle they are tailgating is Ambulance or Fire Engine with blues and twos on
People parking on corners making visibility coming out of a junction nigh on impossible
Chucking rubbish from car
The geezers with the sarcastic line in chat who drive vehicles equipped with blue lights and sirens who get the arse just 'cos an individual has hit three figures on a motorway

Have I missed anything?
A number of the points you make are about poor maintenance. It’s very clear to me that there are far more defective cars on the road than there used to be. When I were a lad, you knew that a bulb out would invite a pull from the constabulary. Now, there aren’t any coppers with time to do this so the roads are full of one eyed monsters.
It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.
People who filter from the A14 to the A11 at the very last minute and then won’t move out of my way as I want to do 90+ and then deem 80 to be sufficient.
They were in such a hurry to cut me up a minute ago and now that urgency has passed?
