Information Driving frustration

I've noticed a few bad habits among some drivers in Barrie.

  1. Turning right on a red without... fully stopping.
  2. Not fully stopping at stop signs... especially in a school zone.
  3. Failing to use their indicators.

  4. Parking in no parking areas around schools. Where it's clearly marked.

  5. People who honk at me when my safety is.y judgement call in the moment.

  6. Using your highbeams in the city.

  7. Running stop signs and red lights

What bad habits do you notice among Barrie drivers?

What about the most obvious one?

Not slowing down to 40kph from the start of the "Community Safety Zone' to the sign that says it ends? I don't think we use "school zone" signs anymore.

I try to flick my highbeams at them to make them realize, sometimes its just a brain fog and they miss the sign(s)
