I hate it when you see people edging out of corners onto main roads... They come out so far until they are blocking the road and you have to let them go, as they are blocking one side of the road and waiting for the other side to let them out... Or drivers that are oblivious to the 'KEEP CLEAR' signs on turnings and they sit there in traffic, thus making you wait if you're turning until traffic gets moving...

That's what the problem is just now though, they're all doing the same speed and attempting to overtake each other then taking miles and miles to do so.

I do this  It is the only way of getting into traffic quickly and I class it as 'city driving' 
I dont drive much anymore being a student, but i pushbike everywhere. Should see me on that, fucking car drivers they really really dont have a clue, sit at green lights turn without indicators and using mirrors and the amount of wankers driving around at night without lights on is shocking tbh
Majority of female drivers also piss me off, especially at roundabouts with their hesitations, many times I have thought there is space for the car in front and for me to go, but no, i find myself nearly impailed on their stupid towbar
Final thing I calss as dangerous myself, people trying to join a motorway a) without an indicator and b) at 30mph, how the fuck are you going to join 70mph traffic at 30 and leaving it right near the end of the slip road doesnt make it any better either
Sorry

It's really annoying if you block the whole lane waiting for someone to let you into a gap but yes sometimes its the only way to get out of the junction and aslong as they say sorry or wave for holding me up i dont mind.

Fair enough but the amount of cyclists that dont wear a helmet, dont have lights and dont have a hi vis jacket especially in the winter weather is equally as shocking. Asking to be hurt.

TBF you shouldnt be looking at the traffic coming across the roundabout you should be aware of the car infront of you. Once they are gone you should then be looking for your gap.

Agreed! and then they look at you like your the idiot when you overtake them on the slip road.
Another is the people who refuse to move into the outside lane even tho its clear to allow you to enter the motorway.

This gets me too, or when you're coming up behind someone in the slow lane and there's someone very slowly overtaking in the middle lane, they can see you're indicating but don't move over, then I have to brake so I don't hit the car infront, then try with all my 79 bhp to try and get back upto speed and try again

Sorry
i dont get why this bothers people as on most slip roads you kinda have to join the motor way altho some of them carry on into the inside lane (if that makes sense)

If someone starts giving me a bit of road rage I just laugh and point. That really fucks them off 
I tend to moan to myself about people, but don't give them abuse.
