Or is just me who this winds up
I hate middle laners nearly as much
Just undertake. Or weave through if there are loads of assholes driving below speed limit.

I undertake them, risky but it might help them to realise they are doing wrong as half the time they haven't a clue. Like alot of old people these days with their fogs on.

I had the worst the other day and what really irritated me was it wasnt the first time it had f*cking happened. This roundabout not far from me has all the lanes marked out on it, yet people STILL drift across lanes without indicating or having any consideration for others already on the f*cking roundabout. Some complete cock drifted into my lane in front of me and cut me up, then when the left the round about they were doing 30mph in a 40mph zone in the RIGHT hand lane, I flashed them they didnt move over so I undertook them, as if this wasnt bad enough, as I passed them the guy in the passenger seat made a gesture at me! I often think there are millions of drivers who are oblivious as to how bad they actually are!

i normally sit in the middle lane at 70, inside lane is for trucks out side lane is for overtaking ppl on the middle lane doin less than 70 and for going as fast as possible if you so wish too.

undertaking is stupid, very dangerous, yes annoys me people sitting at 60/70 in fast lane and nothing anywhere else but if you are up there rse they may decide to pull in at the same time you undertake, asking for trouble!

so if there is an empty lane to the left you still sit in the right hand lane even though there is a car behind you going faster? Sound like the kind of driver that gets on my tits.

I drive 120 miles a day on the motorway and have done for the last 6 years. Beings as my average speed is about 80-85 I get this problem a lot!!!!
I've tried many things over the years including flashing the lights, indicating after i've passed them etc to try and get them to change lanes but some people are just absolute CNUTS!
I now just undertake, either fast on the inside lane (if there on the fast) or slow in the middle lane so they have plenty of time to see me (my car is bright orange )
Then I just glare across to "try" and make them relise what their doing.... sometimes it works and they pull back in. But most of the time it doesn't.

I was on the M3 the other day,doing 75 and I hit a vsmall section of the motorway where there was no traffic. I pulled over into the middle lane and was doing 75 and before I knew it, a copper was behind me in the middle lane. He pulled over to the inside lane making a big thing of indicating, then moved out, overtook me, pulled in infront of me and madea big thing of moving over to the inside lane. By this time i'd relised and moved over to the inside... but i thought that was very relivant.
