infuriates
Makes someone furious
Infuriates means makes extremely angry—beyond mere annoyance to the point of rage.
What infuriates someone provokes intense frustration: It infuriates me when people cut in line.
The word suggests anger that feels justified but often disproportionate to the cause: His smug expression infuriated her.
