Driven to Madness
Captain Placid asks: What annoying things do significant others, workmates and other people in general do that drive you up the wall? Do you want to kill your other half over their obsessive fridge magnet collection? Driven to distraction over your manager's continued use of Comic Sans (The Font of Champions)? Tell us.

Used to happen all the time near my house when I was out pushing the little one
in her pram. It is quite a straight bit of road, good visibility in both directions but near two distinctly different establishments, one expensive private prep school and a builders merchants. I never had a problem with builders, white van men, lorries etc. who without exception would but on at least three occasions was nearly halfway across and had large-spectacle clad ladies swerve around me. A pram is a pretty fucking big object even if they could claim not seeing me (!) and I didn't generally take risks with my daughter by pushing her into the road unbidden. On top of these occasions there were numerous times they would suddenly accelerate hard from distance to get there before I could safely step on etc.
