Example: One of my pet peeves are drivers who don't use a turn signal. It really makes me
angry. I usually ride my bike around the city and I have to deal with reckless people daily.
Yesterday, for example, on my way home, this very impatient taxi driver nearly ran over
me. He made a quick turn without using a turn signal and totally ignored the bike path.

When I yelled at him, he didn’t do anything. didn’t even look ashamed. I almost kicked
his car, but I decided against it. It is better to avoid this kind of problems. I have a family
that cares for me.
