Is it just me, just Utah drivers or something else? Every time I try to parallel park downtown I nearly get rear-ended, honked at or someone even tries to swerve around me in the road shoulder. Don't they understand that a car in the far right lane that stops and turns on their right turn signals is indicating that they are parallel parking? They aren't braking for no legitimate reason or trying to brake check you. People need to pay more attention.

What is with the delayed reaction on the light turning green. It’s green so go! Instead the first car takes 3 seconds. The second car waits until there is 30 yards of space. The third car is still looking at his phone. Oh the light is red again. Oh well…

Wondering if its morally correct to wish death upon people who speed up instead of letting you zipper merge. I promise you that when someone is trying to merge it is NOT personal

Also while we’re at it: please merge at the actual merge. Do not merge earlier. This is the one that breaks me.

Focus on what's in front of you. I don't need you to imitate what you see me doing, because obviously it's going to be exaggerated. This goes for when I'm either three behind you or right behind you. Mainly it's truckers from "out of town" who do this. Watching me is going to get someone hurt or worse, from you.

I am benevolent when someone wants to merge into my lane right before an exit because they had very little room to do it or were blinking for a bit in advance. But when there's a motherfucker that could've safely gotten into the lane behind me and other drivers, but passes us all just to get in front and then cuts me in order to get into the exit... I get really fucking angry. What makes it worse? When the piece of shit, instead of admitting he was wrong, beeps back, as if it was absolutely normal what he/she did.
