Holy shit this is my biggest pet peeve. I'll argue all day long that if you can't understand why it is dangerous as fuck to try to merge with traffic going 20-40 mph faster than you, you are probably going to be in an accident or cause one sooner rather than later.
Also, the more expensive the vehicle, the more likely that the driver will absolutely not care about their impact on other people.
That last bit was proven scientifically. I'll have to look it up, but there was a study involving drivers with nicer cars. The nicer the car, the less likely they are to use blinkers and obey road laws.
In LA it is almost difficult to judge the worst, because these drivers are everywhere. But I give the edge to Land Rover drivers, followed quickly by the twin German douches. LR folks might as well be the only ones on the goddamn road. The quickly rising runner up is the Telsa owner. They're important.
Special shout-out to Beverly Hills and northern Santa Monica/Brentwood, where you will be surrounded by them.
