rigpig - you don't obviously drive on the M1/M6 on a saturday /sunday afternoon - where L2 is the strict preserve of our friends fron foreign climes , either in MOT suspect cars or hi spex BMW/Mercs behaving like prats in L2 ,or using empty L1 as a racetrack.
Try it some time - you might get your eyes opened - as for trafpols - "gone to sleepy times every one , when will they ever laern"

Actualy - a hog (pig ) in the middle lane might work worders - pig is unclean to them :lol:

I do drive on the M6 on Saturdays quite frequently actually, and will be tomorrow. Lane indiscipline is not restricted to one demographic group or another.

And neither is it restricted to Saturdays! I use the M6 virtually every day...

Well don't post such thoughtless, offensive nonsense then! I'll wager your colleagues wouldn't agree with weak attempts to make humour out of their religious beliefs or with an insinuated association with Al Qaeda :roll:

I repeat lane indiscipline, just like other manifestations of poor driving standards, is practiced by all and sundry.

er.. if your car breaks down ... you may be rear ended.. shunted somewhere where you would not want to be.

What if an emergency is on a genuine shout and cannot pass you?

You keep to the left and overtake when you have to - when it's safe to do so.


What if you want the inner lane and cannot feed in because of L1 volume - bunching at 65-70 mph and not undertaking - but neither according you Space and Time ?

:yesyes: I will agree. The majority do middle lane hog. I would hardly use sensible in my description though :wink:
