To our defense a lot of company trucks are governed at a certain speeds. No two companies are the same. Then there are some of us who own our own trucks and like to drive faster. Passing another truck after having to hit the brakes sometimes takes a minute. It's pretty difficult to get 80,000 pounds moving and you darn sure aren't going to do it very fast! Especially if the road goes even the slightest bit uphill. But I will also say some truck drivers are just ......... ok well a lot of them. But still! lol

agreed and the other one that drives me nuts is "you know what I'm sayin" over and over. Listen, if I didn't know I would ask but usually its so obvious that a second grader would understand.
This quite literally had me laughing out loud. I know a guy who says that constantly. Makes me want to scream! lol
People who get in the left lane right away no matter what, then force you to pass one the right because "i'm doing the speed limit, i don't need to get to the right"
And cat owners who let their cat roam free then ..... because my dog is barking at it while it sits in my driveway taunting him, or want to hold your responsible for hitting it when it darted into the road. If you have a pet, you are responsible for it!
(sorry i feel strongly about this cat thing)

The city I live in used to be called Stoplight City on the CB, highway 41 has 12 lights on it through town. When the trucks are in both lanes, about the time they get up to speed they get stopped at the next light and everything is backed up behind them. I have to go through half those lights on the way to work. Of course if I'm running late there will be two trucks side by side, every time! One time I got in the left turn lane and went straight when the light turned. I was in front of the left lane guy at the net light, when it turned green I just sat there until it was yellow and then went. He wasn't very happy and laid on the horn, but it put a smile on my face.
Hahaha yeah that would bug me to. If it's a whole bunch of lights I usually just ride it out in the right lane. No since in playing leap frog until you get into the wide open stretches of road. I've probably been through there lol. I know I have been on US 41 in Indiana going up towards Terre Haute.
Upside down toilet paper and smackers, or talking with food in your mouth.
I have been saved from countless speeding tickets from truckers taking both lanes. Maybe it wasn't intentional from them but I was always appreciative.

Well its not so as long as I'm not asked to stop I will continue to do it I quit smoking so I dont have to hang in the smoke pit anymore thank you
I have on many occasion weedeated thru a baggy of dog .... I would much rather hit the open pile on the side of the road thanks besides now we have all these plastic bags of .... in the landfill when the dogs can just fertilize the ground THAT IS NATURAL it is NATURE

cats are supposed to ram free and eat rats thats NATURE again plus its good exercise for my dogs to chase them
and no I dont have cats but take great pleasure in watching my dogs put the neighbour cats on the run 
arrghh! forgot about that one. i hate that. i believe that was a factor in my last divorce
People who sit at the left-hand-turn light and then eventually ease out as if they nothing else to do for the rest of their life. No idea that there are cars behind them that want to get through the light too before it changes. Sit there and sit there.....oh, that pisses me off.
Prejudice....
One of my two big loves was a gorgeous black man, back in the sixties....I was ostracized...did i give a damn? Hell no!

People who say "open the light or close the light" ITS TURN ON THE LIGHT OR TURN OFF THE LIGHT" 
Ok that maybe be a little petty.

That using the last bit of paper on the toilet roll and not replacing it drives me crazy too, my ex used to do that, just set the empty tube on the sink. I would take them and put them in his truck. He finally figured it out.
I wonder how many of these pet peeves are directly related to EX-spouses?
Not mine. I've been trying to get her mind right for 40 years now and there's still paper between us.

I forgot about that one too. I have a hard time going to family dinners because of that. I've never been married, but I don't think I could marry or date someone who ate like that.
The person reading/sending a text at the stoplight, and is so engrossed they don't realize the car in front of them is now 50yds through the intersection. By this point they usually only see the grill of my jeep in their rearview window inching closer and closer.
