Not so much a peeve as isolated incidents of of incredibly clueless driving, times two!

1. A car on the freeway in the second lane in from the slow/exit lane slows gradually to about 30 mph, as if they are looking for a certain exit sign. When they realize they are right at the exit they want, they come to a dead stop - on the freeway with everyone doing 70 around them! - and wait for the cars to the right to clear and then turns 90 degrees across the slow lane to get to the exit.

2. At the bridge toll booth I drive through every day, the far left lane is for carpools that ends at 10am, next 2 are Fastrak lanes (electronic toll thingy) and the rest normal toll booth lanes. A beater Buick pulls up to the carpool lane, realizes they aren't a carpool, but fail to notice that it's after 10am so it's okay to use, and stops, makes a 90 degree right turn across 3 lanes of traffic that is flying up to the booths. The car is so big is simultaneously blocks the 2 fastrak lanes while waiting for someone to let them into a regular lane. Smoking crack and driving do not mix.
