Well, I don't know who likes congestion, so a big winner there.
5,6,7 good.
A/C? You don't own a black coupe, I guess. It's parked for the next 4 months except to show to buyers. If that car sits in the sun for 10 minutes, it doesn't cool off until the middle of the night. Absolutely miserable to drive if it's over 75 degrees outside and sunny.
My biggest peeve is when people don't know how to behave at a 4-way stop. No, you don't have to wait and stare at me until I come to a complete stop. After you stop, move on! If we get there together, try and figure out if you're on the left and freakin' yield, OK?
I always roll slowly when in a line of cars so I only have to come to complete stop once. Can anyone in this world figure out how that works instead of stopping 2, 4 or 10 times at each stop sign?
You list your 10 or 20 things that ruin driving. I'll just say everyone else on the road ruins driving.

Agreed, with A/C in your climate. Here I only 'need' it 10-20 days per year. I prefer to feel the air moving. If I'm actually moving.
And I should have specifies 'driving' as opposed to cruising. But once you get into 5th (or 6th) who cares? In heavy traffic, yea, I hate my manual.
I still consider the ability to look at a map and figure out where I am going (or have to go) a pleasant mental exercise. I like to
think it separates me from the other morons out there.
Four-way stops are not necessary. They are installed by driving nannies.
