I try not to get too worked up in Lubbock traffic.

But some days that's easier said than done. I can tell myself 900 times that we all make mistakes, maybe it's a new driver, an out-of-towner, or they accidentally inhaled spray paint...

...and I'm still cussing at the end of the day. I'm sure I occasionally get cussed out, too.

Are Lubbock drivers especially bad? Perhaps.

We do have a lot of college kids during some parts of the year who are relatively new to driving and certainly new to driving here. Some folks come in from very small towns on the weekend as well.

It could even be that Lubbock is so easy to drive that we've gotten lazy and sloppy about it.

The point is, we can probably all do a little better about some things. Recently, a thread on r/Lubbock had locals airing their pet peeves about Lubbock driving. I've distilled it into a few categories.

Check it out, I bet you agree with these, and if you're guilty of any of them, I'm sure you'll correct it right away...correct?
