I guess this goes along with going slow in the left lane, but people afraid to pass 18-wheelers in the rain so they sit in the spray off the tires

Peckerheads who, in slow rush-hour traffic, feel entitled to use the on-ramp merge lane as a passing lane.

1. The driver in the right turn lane who turns left into my lane just before they finally turn right.
2. Jay walkers.
3. Those who park 2 feet or more from the curb.
4. Those who park their little-pecker trucks in 2 parking spaces.
5. Anyone who messes with their smartphone while driving.
6. Tailgaters.
7. Drivers who weave between lanes, passing on right, trying to cut you off, gaining virtually nothing, except perhaps the finger.

Some folks can always find something to whine about, no matter how trivial. In most cases, it is something easily ignored - unlike the very real safety issues on the road.

Yestarday's stupid bastard in E46 325/330 that tied to spit on my car when I switched lanes and apparently cut him off (which I didn't and he ended up spiting inside of his own car)

Here's mine and it's a doozie:

Busy four-way intersection. I want to turn left but the first car in line, immediately in front of me, will not move more than two feet forward when the light turns green, scared to put his nose into the intersection so when the light turns red again, he's the only one who gets through. People don't realise that not only is it ok to drive into the "box", it's also necessary so that a higher number of cars stands some chance of making the turn whenever it's safe. These fools are both timid and selfish and I confess that sometimes I honk at them because occasionally it will nudge them forward. I can only imagine the dick-in-the-Bimmer comments that have ensued beyond my hearing range.

I find the above EVEN more galling than when some dope coming in the opposite direction plants his car in the middle of the intersection, with no exit available and cutting off the path for anyone turning left.

^^ This. I've lost track of how many times the green left-turn arrow went red after only one or two cars got through because some knucklehead wasn't paying attention. These idiots are either too timid or busy texting. Or masturbating.

Your number 7 is the one that always makes me laugh. Just the other day there was a driver who was in such a hurry, cutting in and out of lanes, he must have passed me 4 times.
