I don't have any pet peeves. I do however groom several bugbears.

Rush hour traffic! Snow!
Driving in rush hour traffic in the snow!

People talking very loud on their cell phone
People with "selective" memories, like wheen they "remember" things differently than what they originally said. I listen, I remember...exactly.
Driving slow in the left lane, without bothering to even check your rear view mirror
Using words in conversation that you don't know the meaning of
Having complete disregard for other people's existance on this planet when you're in a supermarket / department store.
Parking right next to me when I've clearly made an effort to separate my vehicle from the pack in a parking lot.
Watering your lawn during water restrictions, especially when a majority of the water is running down the street.
Parking your vehicle(s) on the street when you have a perfectly good driveway, but your garage is so full of ________ it can't house your vehicles, or you're too lazy to drive around to the back of your house.
Lawn service personnel blowing debris out into the street as I drive by.
People that pull into a driveway and stop because they don't know where they're going, causing people behind them to stop in the middle of a busy road.
Drying your car off in a car wash stall when the car wash is busy
40 items in a 20 item express line
Driving 30 mph up an entrance ramp to a 65 mph highway.
Not knowing enough about traffic laws to know that you can turn right on a red light when there isn't a sign preventing it.
Pulling out in front of me when there's 1/2 a mile of empty road behind me
Telling me there's a 10 minute wait when it's actually a 40 minute wait

I forgot about when you are at the grocery store only having to buy a few items and the person ahead of you tells the cashier an item they want to buy is mispriced.
Then they call for a 'price check' and everybody in line is held up for an item that was mispriced 10 cents.

And after everything is scanned and bagged, they break out their checkbook and start scribbling. GRRRRRR
Companies who totally ignore email questions. This seems to be more and more common across the spectrum lately. From food products to software to investments. Send them an email or web question and get ZERO response – even after receiving the automatic acknowledgement answer. Some I’ve repeated 3 times and still no response.
Posting in threads with no regard to what others have written. Basically not reading other responses.
Sheetstink from the work bathroom creeping out into the hall and into the food prep area. A blanket of khrapfog so nasty that the vomit response cannot be repressed, yet some folks ignore it as if there is no smell. What some people eat, frankly I don’t want to know.
People who don’t listen.
Speeders on residential streets.

An admission of guilt?
I purposely leave my dumps elsewhere.
People who breed irresponsibly.
Only using the turnsignal AFTER you've come to a complete stop in the left turn lane and leaving it flashing in my face for the whole time the light is red.
People that accelerate to prevent you from changing into their lane after you signal.
Those black dancing silhouettes on web site ads. The fat chick one makes me shiver in disgust.
My BITOG Peeves,
1) People who cannot follow the rules without oversight.
2) Mobile.
