Scary motorway incident

[Spacecadet]

I've often wondered that.

What about when the outside lane traffic is stopped, whilst the inside lane is clear as far as the eye can see and you are driving in the inside lane.

99% of drivers seem to think that lane 1 is reserved for trucks. Cars should only pass through lane 1 when joining/exiting the motorway

I was on the motorway this afternoon, keeping pace (and a fast pace at that) with lane 3.

Idiot car behind (large and new Beamer / Audi type car) is right behind me flashing lights and waving hands.

I go to move to lane 2, but another idiot behind Mr Angry undertakes us both in lane 2, meaning I had to brake and regain control in lane 3.

I wait for this guy to complete undertaking, then move into lane 2.

The first idiot then zooms past, before braking agressively with no reason to stay level with me, as I am driving a lot more slowly than his ideal speed of 100+mph.

Cannot swear to it, but, because he then sharply left the motorway to the hard shoulder with the car behind him, it appears that he braked so sharply that the guy behind him crashed into his rear!

Think I need a stiff drink.

I've seen a similar circumstance more times than I've cared to count.

One of the reasons I like to cycle cross country to work.

They're all go crazy round rush hour round here.

I think they have this idea the that bigger the fireball they die in the closer to Odin they get to sit in Valhalla.

You live in a Muslim area, I see.

You carry on driving as they are in a queue.
