    Can't be arsed to read the rest of this. If you are ever in a position where someone can undertake you (especially in a van) then you are in the wrong lane. Sounds like he attempted to signal this fact to you and you were still oblivious to the fact that you were in the wrong.

    Stay off the motorway if you are incapable of keeping up with the traffic.

    Got very aggressively undertaken by a Fedex driver the other day on the M62. He was driving right up peoples bumpers flashing them out the way in lane 3. Even cut up an ambulance trying to join. Basically driving with extreme aggression causing cars to move dangerously to get out of his way.

    I phones the handy number on the back of his van, spoke with the nice lady who answered giving his reg.

    Well, ended up with a phone call from somebody senior at Fedex this morning thanking me very much, advising from the reg and timings they found the driver, who was being appropriately dealt with by management.

    Hopefully one less idiot on the roads

      Fair point.

      Last week , I was going approx 85 in the outside lane on a v busy, but moving, stretch of the M6 - Audi (shocker) behind me, driving incredibly aggressively; but I had nowhere to go. I was overtaking, had cars in front of me etc - and yet this guy was speeding up to get closer to me, flashing me etc. No idea why, or to what end. It made me angry at first, but then it did actually scare me a bit. I couldn't have got out of his way if I wanted to.

      Some people are just pricks, I suppose.
      Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

          Only in free-moving traffic. And apparently, only in the UK, which I never realised before.


          I wonder if there are people whose hobby is phoning those "how am I driving" numbers and making spurious complaints?
