Our Friday PCMs always touch on this subject.
Who's the worst? I don't know if it's the teenager texting while driving or the grandmother driving with her dog on her lap. Just last month I pulled up to an intersection and the driver in the car next to me was playing a guitar while driving with his feet. He had a folk guitar and was using both hands to play while operating the steering wheel with his feet. Needless to say, that license plate was turned in to the police.
Actually, the worst (and I apologize, DS, but this is true) are the Canadians who come down for the weekend. I am certain that some of their indecision comes from not knowing the area but some of the behavior just cannot be explained and the examples are too numerous to list here.

Every day is the same; more drivers out here on Mondays , less by Friday, but always most have no idea of how to properly operate a motor vehicle.
In Mass. you only have to read the booklet " Rules of the Road" when you first apply for a license , & you are never tested on it again.
For license renewals all they want is an updated picture & to check your eyesight.

Worst I have seen is a UPS driver in Plattsburgh, N.Y. He was stopped taking his lunch at Dunkin' Donuts at the end of the day to help out. He wanted to know if anyone had access to internet so he could get on Brown Cafe and add several posts. Nobody could help him so he raced out of the parking lot to get back to the center as fast as possible. Everyone on the street cleared out of the way because they knew this person needed to log onto BC as soon as he could. Thankfully, nobody got hurt and several posts were responded to that day.

Are you guys referring to Canadians or "Canadians"? Intercity Canadians drive poorly all week long on my route.
Yes! I thought I was the only one who has seen this. 75 MPH, left lane, 6 a.m. One had a the newspaper, the other had a Penthouse with the dome light on!!!

I am referring to the Canuckies who drive their RVs down only to "camp" in the parking lot at WalMart.

Perhaps there was a sale at Dunkin Donuts.
Seriously, that is illegal and potentially dangerous.
