    BMW 3 Series drivers, well some BMW drivers. They dont realise that little knob beside the steering wheel turns these lights on outside the car that let people know you are going to change lanes....

    SUV and Minivans for sure. People in minivans seem to lack any driving skills whatsoever. SUVs I hate for the reasons already mentioned, they scare me just due to the size of them!

    It seems that women in general aren't paying attention when they drive, around me anyway. They are really scary in SUVs. I get them changing lanes with me on the side of them often. It was really bad when I was driving the miata.

    ANYONE on a cell phone. A headset or speakerphone may help, but it still takes away COMPLETELY from the concentration necessary to properly operate a vehicle in traffic. You can't use your turn signals, can't move your head properly to check mirrors and blind spots, and you just plain can't concentrate enough to drive safely. It's inconsiderate of the safety of other motorists, it's inconsiderate to the person on the other end of the line, but it is a great way to get wrecked. Honestly, I'm just in my late twenties, but I remember living WITHOUT cell phones being easier on many, many fronts. (not all of course - convenience is great, but they do cause PLENTY of problems, the greatest of which is death on the streets.)

    Henry lets be honest. Asians are not bad drivers. That is like saying white people are bad drivers. Lets get more specific. Chinese typicaly are bad if they did not learn to drive at an early age. Korean are pretty good drivers if they drove in Korea before coming to the states. But Asian is too broad a discription.

    What cracks me up is the Chinese ladies in Alhambra Ca where they wear that Darth Vader Mask to proteck themselfs from the UV rays. Dont they know that every winshield on every car since the early 70s has a UV screen built in??? JJ

    In my experience, Asian drivers are by far the worst. They tend to lack common sense, they drive slow, they signal for three miles before a turn, they can rarely see over the windshield, they change lanes onto you when you are right next to them, and in general it is not a pleasure to drive with them around.

    And you also forgot... while changing their shoes. (I'm not kidding. I know girls who have changed their shoes while driving. Sadly, they didn't like me anymore after I finished telling them why that was a terrible idea.)

    Edit: Using a much broader brush, I'm going to say: Anyone that thinks driving is only a way to get from point A to point B.

    My friend used to say 'Women drivers, no survivors'. It's pretty catchy. And Henry, what do you really think?!?!

    I know plenty of "Asian" drivers that are great. I think you just need to stop categorizing them as Asian Drivers. Its like saying Black people are bad drivers or Mexican people are bad drivers. The point im trying to drive home is that TO say Asian is to be ignorant. THis is how you say it. If your going to go after it.

    Chinese drivers are bad. That is more specific.

    By the way my wife is Korean and drives very well. JJ
