I live in an area of the US with heavy traffic. There are surveys released each year, the worst traffic in the US (as there are in other countries as well. Paris, London, KL, Bangkok and city in Italy, all have traffic issues).
But, there are things that happen as you drive that make the experience worse.
This is a poll of those experiences.

Such things make me prefer to put on loud music and sing while driving in a traffic jam. Cool Poll, Coach
I hate it when drivers think that they are the only one in a rush. They are the ones who create the jam
That is completly true! Also a question I should have asked!!
If everybody follow rules and show patience, there can be a better condition of traffic.
That is so true! Thanks for reminding me!!!
Substance abuse when driving is far more common than we are willing to admit. The police have their hands full!
Maryland, where I live has some of the laxest DUI laws in the country. It makes me both scared (on a Friday night) and sad (the rest of the time).
I really enjoyed this driving poll.
Thanks, it was a lot of fun to create!
My pleasure to cheer you on in your work.
Great poll! There are many irresponsible drivers out there. They may have been drinking, and sometimes even sleeping while driving. Always watch from every angle.
The reality of tomorrow is that cars have to be smarter. Radar for a car lets you know what is around you as you drive. But the reality of drinking and driving is a massive problem.
Very good poll. There are more “crazy” drivers on the road every day.
Thanks, crazy drivers are why I wrote the poll!
Great poll. So many crazy drivers out there. Everyone is always in a rush.
Thanks, Carol, so true, so true. Too many crazy drivers!
Especially this time of the year. I dread getting on the road.
My car had broken today. So nothing is funny with cars for me today.
Sorry to hear your car broke. That is nearly as frustrating and bad drivers around you!
This could be pages long!! Stopping before you turn onto a street. No turn signals, Going too slow, going too fast, on the CELL Phone.. etc. Good poll though, just way too short. lol
I was just doing the things that happened to me, yesterday on the way home from work. I love my job, but it bothers me that I relish the days I get to work from home because I don’t have to drive!
No doubt, I live near the I5, avoid it at all costs. You know theres a problem when you plan you day in order to avoid traffic.
