âWhen we look at each âannoying behaviorâ and whoâs most likely to be guilty of it, we see that people have specific complaints against friends,â said Amy Danise, editorial director of Insure.com.
âIn addition to the usual speeding and following too closely, friends are most likely to be cutting off other drivers, fiddling with the radio/CD player, talking on the cellphone while driving, failing to signal and looking at passengers rather than the road while talking.â
