The fact that I have to think for very many seconds before I remember how to work it. The 'polite' reminder that the car has applied it automatically for me when i switch off the engine. I HAVE NEVER FORGOTTEN TO APPLY IT IN MY LIFE UNTIL IT TURNED INTO A POXY BUTTON! deep breath

Last week I was out running and heading past someone wearing one who completely freaked out (I was at least two metres away) as I went past. Totally unnecessary and paranoid. I'm also pissed off with the idiots who think it's ok to discard the wretched things all over the pavements! Rant over.
