17 Road Rage Moments All Drivers Will Understand

Stuck in traffic? Surrounded by moving hazards? Losing your patience? Welcome to the world of driving where your temper gets tested, your blood pressure rises, and your French becomes fluent. Below are the 17 most common road rage moments that stem from the driving offences of other drivers.

1. Driving WAY under the speed limit

It's great to be a safe driver but, must you really drive 10, 20, 50km/h under the limit?

2. Learner drivers

Good to know that you're learning how to drive, but... pick up the pace a little please, or drive in non peak hour times.

3. Arrogant P platers

Nothing screams out cocky more than a P plater doing Fast and the Furious style driving on the streets. Relax, you're nothing special.

4. The guessing game at roundabouts

Are they turning left? Are they turning right? Nope, they're going straight....

5. Indecisive drivers

When you're stuck behind a driver who has changed their mind a million times and have indicated to turn, go straight instead, slow down again, try to change lane but then continue going straight anyway.

6. Slow parking jobs

You're stuck behind a driver who has made 27 manoeuvres to park their car and now has a conga line of vehicles behind you watching them squeeze into the spot.

7. Merging without an indicator

We are not mind readers. Indicate if you want to get into our lane.

8. Tailgaters

Must you really drive so close to another vehicle? Relax your sacks, you'll get there eventually.

9. Impatient drivers

Always finding a way to get through traffic, and cause more traffic in hindsight.

10. Drivers who don't go when the light turns green

Usually caused due to texting or fiddling around with the iPod and/or radio. Green means GO!

11. Drivers who won't let you in/merge

Would it really be too much of a hassle to let one car in? We know you've seen us trying to get in, despite your attempts to ignore us by looking away.

12. Crazy wet weather drivers

It's like as if drivers lose all common sense in the rain and road rules don't apply.

13. Chronic brakers

Why do you need to brake continuously? If there's no hazard or need to brake, drive Normally.

14. Parking hoggers

Do you really need two spots for one car?

15. Cyclists

It is not a Sunday stroll. Get your bike and take it to the park. No one wants you on the road. You hold up traffic and come out of nowhere. Hazards in the making.

16. Taxi drivers

You too, don't own the roads. You are serious offenders of most of the annoying driving habits featured in this list. Learn to drive.

17. Buses blocking roads

Mostly annoying when they half pull over at the bus stop and their rear is still in your lane and causing traffic.
