Both of TB's annoy me. Plus...
Using the mobile (hand held) is a big hate of mine.
Squeezing in at the last minute when in a traffic queue or losing a lane bugs me, especially if said car has pulled out from the queue to try and jump >:( I have been known to hold my ground and witness a "cone shower" :-X ::)
Not acknowledging when let out/through.
General bad driving.

So pretty much 75% or more of people on the road ::)

"Women were most annoyed by people tail-gating their cars (4.63), with men more annoyed by people hogging the middle lane (4.33)"

Can anyone see the correlation here, she's hogging the middle lane and he's "up her arris" try to get her out the way. Well I could have told them that without a survey  :D :D ;D ;D ;D >:( >:( >:(

Arris holes who pull back in to the left after you've both accelerated away from a junction/lights, not indicating or checking their mirrors, thinking that they're well passed you, because their 3 year old fwd shitbox is obviously faster than an old mans car.

All of the above points others have made are things that annoy me, however the thing that annoys me more than anything is people going all the way around a roundabout in the left hand lane. When I come to power there will be a man in the middle of every roundabout holding a shotgun, if you go all the way around in the left hand lane, you will be shot at the side of the road.
