Since it's winter and I'm stuck up north for a bit, my current pet peeve is people who don't clean the snow off their car before driving. Not only does it restrict their ability to see, they end up spewing snow on the cars behind them.

Not sure where you are but here in NJ it is against the law to drive without cleaning the snow off the roof of  your car at the very least.

I'm in SW Michigan. Technically, one can be ticketed for not cleaning the snow from the car. In reality, it doesn't happen. The cops just don't have time to do it.

Boy if this isn't true!!

Most of my flying, these days, is regional. Alaska airlines. For those flights, they use Bomdardier prop planes. All well and good, as far as flying. Those planes are more stable, than many jets I've flown on. 

BUT, I swear the seats keep shrinking 😀They are so small! 

I'm a size 10. On my last flight I had no extra room. My seatmate was maybe a size 14, if that. She asked for a seat belt extension. She'd had a recent hip surgery and the belt was so tight, it was painful. She wasn't a large woman, at all.  It's really getting ridiculous!

On these boards?  Threads that get derailed by two posters getting into a personal argument & each one just has to have the last word.

In the real world:  Distracted drivers.  Put down that !!@#$%& phone & drive!  Also, people who must talk on their phones in public places.  Where did they ever get the idea that other people want to hear whatever they're talking about?

Those on the BB who hijack threads to have personal back and forths with another poster. 

Loud talkers in public places.

Men and woman who pollute the air with their smelly perfume, cologne.

I so agree about the hijacking of threads and then a personal conversation!!  It is just plain rude!!  I just exit the thread and never go back!!

That's the case here too but how often is the law enforced?  My guess is there isn't a lot of manpower for that.

I literally see cars with just a tiny circle scraped on the drivers side of the car.  It's just enough for them to see out of.  That's not allowed either but I see it all the time.

SO True. Lost a windsheild to this once. A big ice chunk off an SUV. Scary!

@Jacie & @beckyb1012, my family & I have always called a shopping cart a 'buggy' or 'cart.'  We originate from FL, so maybe it is a southern expression?  I didn't even realize that!
