What is it that other drivers do that really annoys you but that, secretly, you wish you could do too, if you had the nerve?

My pet hate at the minute is when you're queueing to go left or forward at a roundabout, and some maniac comes screaming up the empty outside lane pretending he wants to go right - and then goes all the way round the roundabout and gets let in! Probably not illegal, but how annoying!
To go straight on at a roundabout it is OK to be in the outside lane as long as you keep in the same lane when you exit.Turning left is not the same and is bad driving.I hate to see cars on motorways going up the hard shoulder to get past queuing traffic, but I sometimes wish I had the nerve to do the same.
Drive around with all the windows down and the stereo on as loud as it will go. Everyone else seems to get away with it, but I know that as soon as *I* tried it, I would get pulled over by the police. (It is actually against the law to have the radio on so loud that you can't hear other drivers' horns, emergency vehicles' sirens, pedestrians screaming that you're about to run them over, etc. However, some people seem to "get away with murder".)
What REALLY bugs me is when your'e driving down a narrow road or one with lots of parked cars and you pull over to the left and let (sometimes several) cars through....and they don't acknowledge it at all! I'm afraid that by the time the third or fourth person does it, they tend to get a VERY sarcastic THANKYOU ****** !!!! It makes me want to do the same, but I just can't do it. I always thank other drivers!!
Overtaking! I need a view of about a mile of clear straight road before I'll trundle pas a Reliant Robin, while everyone else seems to nip in and out with ease. I have just never had the confidence, even after 31 years of driving!
Pull a really big wheelie...i'm too scared and can only do little ones!

Thanks everyone! Robber, the roundabouts I go round are small, with only one exit lane - that's why that behaviour annoys me!! sft - when I see wheelies done just to 'impress' I long for the rider to fall off backwards - so don't you start now!!!!
