I don't block, but if you come screaming up the outside lane and cut up inside the area where the cones are coming in when everyone else has merged and make them all brake, you're a twat

You mean those that have read the highway code and use all available roadoke:
Otherwise you simply move the traffic jam two miles earlier ...

oh don't try and put the 'zip system' onto these UK people... they just don't get it.... far better to queue up nice, and quiet and sit for 400000 miles rather than using all the road and MERGE IN TURN... :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:
the zip system works in every country in mainland Europe... but the Brits are far too stupid to understand and utilise it..
:thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown:

Of course, he had no right to stop you and you no need to stop since he was off duty...![]()
I undertook a motorcycle travelling at sixty miles an hour and hogging the middle lane of the A3 only to see the word "Police" written on the fuel tank as I did so (I'm sure I didn't miss it on the back of the bike) :headbang: Fortunately, I was working in the local Accident and Emergency Department and it turned out that the traffic cop knew me well 8)
I agree, everyone should pull into line well before, but just leave me one little space before the cones to nip inStuart Truman said:Despite the fact that if you get in lane early you don't need to merge in turn and there is no jam.oke:
Recent roadworks on the M4 confirmed this. Once people had got used to them people got in lane earlier and traffic flowed. It only takes one arse wanting to be ahead of everyone else for it to snarl up with stop start traffic

Classic video of a lane hogger getting what he deserves. Excuse the language.
Apologies to all members not in the UK I meant the UK. Pass Plus Yes but it still isn't Mandatory, which In my opinion it should be and until all us have had this training this motorway madness will continue.SUUNTOBOB said:All of this chatter about this subject just proves to me we ALL need tuition to drive on motorways which None of us have, its about time it was mandatory for you to pass the test :fuelfire:
