Recently added to my pet peeve list: People who'll stop traffic by stepping into a marked crosswalk, then proceed across the street at a glacial pace. Sometimes it'll be some dimwit who can't take their eyes off their phone long enough to realize that they're holding up a dozen other people while they read that oh-so-important text about what their friends are having for lunch. Other times it's some holier-than-thou pedestrian with that smug look of someone who's suddenly been given total control over all the traffic and is now basking in their few seconds of self-importance. I'm more than happy to give people with mobility issues all the time they need to cross a street, but most of these people I'm waiting on seem to be perfectly healthy and capable of moving a little faster if need be.
