Being a P plater is a small part I can forgive, after all the whole reason they have to wear P plates is to tell other drivers "hey I'm new at this and not as good as you".
The 2 things (hate to sound like I'm generalising here but.....) I can't forgive are the "I have a license and am now the best driver in the world" attitude of a lot of P platers, and the I didn't see him excuse. If you didn't see him you didn't look long enough and IMHO are then not fit to drive on your own as you are a danger to others.
Also for what its worth I think our system of licensing and testing sucks. It seems in a car now all you have to do is show you can push the pedals and turn the wheel, and drive like a good boy for the duration of a test and you are able to take a deadly weapon out on the roads and go for your life.
I have a lot more to this rant but we all know it and have all said it before, so I won't bore you. It just gets tiring being an afterthought on the roads and in the eyes of those in control.
