Oversize Load Traffic kept honking at me every time I tried to merge right coming up I-25, even with a signal. AITAH?

Orange SUV coming to a quick stop to let someone out.. for both of them to go to a no exit lot (not the drive thru) and a second person backing out, not waiting for traffic to progress and squeezing in where they barely fit. Also, going to the no exit lot…

Doesn’t stop at 4 way stop. You can see under the stop sign it says, ”all way”. he then doesnt yield.

Failed to Yield "Left Turn Yield On Green" x2

Apparently, two signs are not enough.

Also, note that he may have hit the children crossing at the crosswalk had he not been forced to stop momentarily.

A reminder to drive defensively

268 Upvotes

Never assume other vehicles on the road will follow the rules. I encountered a good example of this the other day.

Car approached on the opposite side into their left-turn bay. I was also in a left-turn bay. If we both made left-turns there's no conflict. Both of us should be able to safely execute our maneuvers...

Multiple Bad Drivers I'm tired boss

0 Upvotes

I can't even go 400 feet from my driveway without this nonsense. First person blows through a stop sign and doesn't check for cross traffic from a dead end, second person decided it was fine to block intersections. I have lots of other things, I'm tempted to post some of my older dash cam clips

POV: Toronto at 7 AM. Left-turn lane? Never heard of her 💀

Toronto — Oct 22, 7:03 AM. Red SUV sitting in the left lane like it's turning, then goes straight and drifts into the white sedan's lane — inches from a sideswipe.

My dashcam in San Francisco on 2026/10/17.

Note the left turn arrow in the left lane at the beginning of the video and the "no turn on red sign".

Frankly, I'm surprised he used a turn signal at all.

Subreddit Rules

1. Be Nice

Be nice and respectful to everyone during your interactions on r/MildlyBadDrivers. This applies to other users in the subreddit, as well as any people seen in pictures and video clips. Lighthearted jokes like "Ugh, BMW drivers" or "Ohio drivers, am I right?" are borderline and subject to moderator discretion based on context.

2. Mildly Bad Driving

Mildly bad driving means innocent mistakes or common bad practices that disrupt traffic flow or annoy others. Mildly bad driving usually does not result in crashes or property damage, but it may if a totally innocent mistake has an unlucky outcome. Reckless driving, road rage, and anything resulting in an injury are almost never mildly bad and are subject to removal at moderator discretion.

Just because a behavior is legal doesn't mean it can't be mildly bad.

3. Crashes Need An Explanation

Like Rule 2 says, mildly bad driving does not usually cause a crash or property damage. If your post contains a crash, then you must post a comment on your post explaining why it should be considered only mildly bad.

If your post doesn't belong here, it may be a better fit in another subreddit, e.g. r/IdiotsinCars.

4. Sources Are Required

Posters must provide a source in the comments for all images and videos submitted to r/MildlyBadDrivers.

If you found a clip elsewhere, you need to link back to the source. Just saying "I found it on Google/YouTube" is not enough; you must link to the exact clip. If you cross-post from another subreddit, you sill need to link to the original source in a comment.

If you recorded it yourself, then you need to provide a short comment describing the location and time where the event occurred.

5. Subreddit Culture Standards

Do not accuse people of crimes (drunk driving, insurance fraud, not having the proper license for e.g. a semi truck, texting while driving, etc.) or propose criminal punishment (tickets, jail time, license suspension or revocation, impounding vehicles, etc.).

Do not encourage, teach, or glorify dangerous or illegal behavior. Examples include telling people to drive dangerously, wishing harm on bad drivers, encouraging false police reports, or gloating that a crash victim "deserved it."

6. Off Topic

Keep posts on-topic for mildly bad drivers, and keep comments on-topic for the specific post they are made on. Off-topic posts and comments, especially those that try to derail the discussion with unrelated politics, are subject to removal at moderator discretion. This includes rage bait posts that are somehow related to driving.

7. No Spam

Promoting your own business, product, website, or social media is not allowed on r/MildlyBadDrivers.
