Top 10 Driving Pet Peeves

Hagerty Collector Network   05 May 2006 16:02 GMTPage rating:


With more than 30 million Americans expected to hit the road this Memorial Day weekend the Hagerty Collector Network surveyed thousands of members nationwide to uncover America's "Top 10 Driving Pet Peeves." The results from Hagerty's survey revealed some surprising, yet common "sins" of the road every American should know as the summer travel season officially begins!

"After visiting numerous car shows, auctions and automotive events, and talking with our customers, the Hagerty staff heard many of the same complaints about drivers' behaviors," says CEO McKeel Hagerty. "Yet these drivers also admitted they, too, were guilty of committing some of these 'sins of the road.' That's why we decided to launch this survey -- for a fun way to bring these pet peeves to the public's attention. We found some funny results, but many responses were things we're all guilty of doing at one time or another!"
