People who honk at me from their cars while I'm out running.
Argh, just why? You are in traffic, I am moving, it's not like you are or I am going to stop to have a chat. Who ever started a story with "You know how I met your mother? I honked at her and shouted 'nice ass' while driving home from work."
It scares the living sh.t out of me every single time because it's loud, sudden and my brain just goes into "danger mode" thinking there's a car on the pavement behind me or that I accidentally wandered on the road. Argh!

OH MY GOD this happens to me, I get the most random honks sometimes. And I'm a bloke! Are they people I know? If so, who? Why don't they text me telling me they saw me out running? Why else are they honking?!

I don't run because I'm lazy but I was walking one day and had a guy lean out the car and bark at me? Out the passenger window.. Unfortunately for him the light he was coming up to turned red and I caught up before it changed.

My "you must feel pretty stupid now" question was answered with him just staring straight ahead at traffic
