What is your pet peeve as a motorist?
People who don't use turn signals as if I'm a psychic and know they're going to make a left and now I am trapped behind them when I could have gone around had they given advance notice.

I don't know if you've driven along the toll-free A7 motorway in Spain's Costa Del Sol but whilst the area in general is beautiful, joining the motorway in heavy traffic is a nightmare; few slip roads or lights, virtually no courteous drivers who'll give you a chance. In the end you have to choose between going nowhere or the possibility of going nowhere in a box. All Spanish drivers learn to blast their horns and that's about it. And yet if you ask them for directions or help changing a wheel you become an amigo.

@alan20 Spaniards are some of the most oblivious people in the world; they're bad enough as pedestrians, let alone behind the wheel... 🤔

@wildbill83 They've many great qualities, e.g.sense of drama and colour but recognition of colour certainly doesn't apply to traffic lights in Palma.
