.
I'll start as its just happened as i was out for a blast.....
Twats that chuck fag ends out window whilst your behind them,
yup i did give him what for when i passed him.
peoples windscren washers that totaly miss the glass and hit you full in the chops...
that fire over the top of cars and leave you stinking of screenwash and bikes that try to go round the outside of you on bends and realise
they've overcooked it and nearly highside in front of you .
Humungous feckin speed humps that arnt painted, so you dont see em till its too late. Hit one the other week at about 20mph (fully locked up and
smokin'
and took off. bent both front cycle wings to about 30 degrees
and if you do see em its pot luck for the sump.
A macd***lds flurry spoon appearing as if by magic in your face at 50mph!
Surely it couldnt have been from the car infront?! Who would do such a thing...
of chewing tobacco and spit in the windscreen is no joy either, and it happens alot here in the south...

Wild animals straying into the roads.... or come to think of it ANYTHING straying into the road.
Also, pillocks voicing off how totally inadequate your car makes them feel 
Normally middle-aged losers...
now, this is going to be a long thread.
my 5 most hated things ever are:
-those blue LED things on washer jets pikeys have on their cars.
- scallys/pikeys/townies/chavs etc (whatever u call them in your area)
-cars done up to look well fast, that can barely reach 30mph (check out chavscum.com)
-speed cameras
-man united
holes in the f' road lots of them
Don't know how many of you frequent www.pistonheads.com but I have been reliably informed by someone (not plod) who owns an LTI2020 (the laser
speed gun in most common use) that 7's are one of the hardest vehicles to catch (specialy with a dodgy stick on front number plate).
"Tested 2 a few weeks ago. Approaching, one nothing at all at any range, the other from about 80ft only after aiming at a headlight for some
time. Both had stick on plates on the upper nose cone. Compared to a dicovery on the same access road that I could target at 600ft & clock
instantly. Receeding was a different matter much easier, due to normal refletive plates but one was still difficult to target. "
Forgot to add my hates:
1) Women using rear view mirror to do hair/makeup. Steer very clear, was almost taken out on my bike by some stupid woman doing this.
2) All speed humps, just encourages use of Surburban AssaUlt Vehicles.

People who decide that the best time to tune the radio / find the tape they want is while driving. My mate's Dad was nearly killed by someone
doing this round a blind corner... ended up on the other side of the road. Bint.
Also... people who say "Only an idiot would drive a red Ferrari" (Ann Robinson)WHAAAAAAT?!

numberplates must be mounted vertically - stick on number plates on locost cones will get you nicked - but Im not sure points go with it.
pet hates? friggin hand dryers. whats with those? any given washroom will have sinks outnumbering dryers by at least 4 to 1. so, it takes 8 secs to
wash, and 30 secs to dry. So how does that work out.
paper towels any time.
nanny state - thats another,
and the gits that bought the co i work for recently.

Women taking their kids to school in a huge 4x4. Doesn't matter if it's one of the ones designed to go up hills (eg range rover) or not (eg
X5). It's not the fact that they are massive and you can't see past them, it's the fact that the person driving has no driving skill,
awareness or respect for anyone else, and will invariably set about making your life a misery with a grand display of their ineptitude
Pete
this will be a popular one
"flatcaps" as they are collectively called in my area, who drive at at about 43 miles an hour regardless of any speed limits ie 43 mph in
30,40,50 and 60 zones
and then they shake their heads at you and tink your scum when you overtake them the first chance you get
ARSES who drive in the fast lane when theres nothing in the slow lane for miles The M8 to Glasgow in the morning. The guy at citylink who will
give your parcels one day without asking for id then the next day ask for id very annoying.
oooh i have another
the arses at the effin council who put the wrong road name sign on my road so that whenever a courier delivers somthing can't find my road
because its got the wrong sign on it, and they won't take it away AND when the council boys were putting the sign in i told them it was the wrong
sign. idiots

Tw@ts that overtake on a dual carriageway, cut you up by exiting at the net slipway when there was nothing behind you for two miles
Total fecking a'holes
(PS. Happens almost daily on my way to work)
(PPS. The tw*t living on my estate with a bog standard Fiat who drives like an ar*e and has fitted a full roll cage. Nice!!!)
People who get into the wrong lane at roundabouts and the cut you up, and to make it worse, they hoot at you

I thought of another:
Drivers who dont indicate their intentions!!!
Like it's happened a few times today...
Oh and those that leave them on....
Also the gits that put/leave on their Fog lights when there are no adverse weather conditions.
Persons far more educated than I who know that it is not detrimental to be using a mobile phone when driving in town as long as they keep to the speed
limit.
Oh! And 4x4 owners on the 'school run'

I was hit by one such chap... went straight through on a red
light - fortunately I lived to tell the tale! Unfortunately, so did he! all the above.
the worlds full of annoying b45t48ds...

Don't look though because you're not old enough
Idiots who drive in the outside lane when the others are clear, ignore you when you flash them to move over, and then hoot/flash/swerve/swear when you
pass on the left

Right - here we go :-
1: Politicians (I wouldn't pay 'em in bent washers),
2: Little scroats who louse up otherwise peaceful & law-abiding neighbourhoods,
3: And their anti-social mates,
4: Unattended house alarms,
5: Paying council tax (especially to those self-promoting city councillors who splash out on unwarranted jollies),
6: Distributors of litter, (put 'em in the stocks),
7: "Big Brother" & similar TV progs.
Not an exhaustive list, but I'm knackered after a day's plumbing (earning brownie points), and I need some beers - NOW!
To quote JoelP

So it's you in the way is it?
the twice bit reffered to the old nearside passes. Its suprises them enough that they actually see the finger stuck up at them!
I was being followed by a bloke in a Smart Car, one of the Kompressor jobbies, he was undertaking everything trying to keep up with me. The lightweight, he gave up at 120 (private roads, obviously).
horse poo(quite a bit in and around newmarket) and dead things in the road.and horses in general on the road.i managed to spook one of the temprementle beasts and id pulled over and was just on tick over.letting him pass when the beast of much poo started rearing up and going all sideways right next to me.had to let him pass as horses have right of way in newmarket!
cheers for that, son

i got pulled in for a full two tape interview 5 years ago for overtaking on the inside - it was an off duty plod in hog lane.
undertaking is considered as dnagerous driving - a biggie. They didnt persue it as the plod basically did a road rage persuit of me.

petes wall selling idea - its possible - and has been tried 500 years ago...
http://www.bbc.co.uk/northamptonshire/360/triangular_lodge.shtml
Alldays mini supermarkets all of them. eg one customer in shop two people serving six or more customers in shop one person serving and another three staff packing shelves the place is being run like a tuckshop
People who don't put up clearly vissible house numbers, so when it two in the morning ,dark, raining and you are supposed to have picked up your fare, you spend another 20 minutes trying to find the house. When you do find it, it is numbered, black numbers on a black wall that faces the opposite direction to that which you might reasonably approach the house from. Oh and they are only large enough to read if you are standing right next to them.
Well - you know what they say - always let the slowest lead, otherwise you only end up loosing them
