Nothing as long as you are there to overtake somebody.

You then overtake them Jacko. But as much as your proving the ignorence of most drivers who sit in the middle lane and cause traffic jams, the people who do 50 in the slow lane, should have their keys taken away and a free buss pass issued.
Also, i despise when someone undertakes you to squeeze into the SAFE distance gap you have left between yourself and the traffic infront.

My brothers a truck driver and used to take the fuse out and you'd get an extra 6mph, the other truckers used to say that "thorburn have got the best looking trucks, if only we could see them instead of the back of them all the time" according to him, the 6mph is alot more in a truck on the motorway hence the overtaking.

Some people should try driving on the continent to have a swift lesson on motorway etiquette. They'd be scared shitless after 10 miles down the autobahn if they tried thier middle lane sitting antics there.

Are you kidding, you didn't get taught to stay left, doesn't matter whether it's a motorway or not.

Also on a dual carriageway, someone (usually female) wants to go right at the roundabout in 3miles time, so they get in the right hand lane and end up going next to another car both doing 40mph blocking the entire road

My word, had some tart in a Yaris do this on the "up and over" of the Windsor/Eton releif road this morning.
So, third gear was taken and passing on the left occoured.#
The best thing is she started indicating about 0.7 miles before she wnted to turn.

A minimum speed of 56MPH should be enforced on motorways.
If you don;t want to do that speed, then you can fuck off to the A and B roads or get a bus pass.

People who sit in the outside lane. There should be an outside lane for bikers only, 100 is the speed limit on the motorway don't you know 
People who flash you when you are forced to undertake because they refuse to pull over into the EMPTY middle and inside lane, then shit themselves and don't look at you when you slow down and pull alongside them
People who pull out on me when I'm doing 50 in a 30, you should look 10 times before pulling out, you're causing me an inconvenience because you couldn't wait 2 seconds more
Cars who purposely move in my way when I'm filtering because they're jealous I'm making progress and they're not
It's an empty long straight road, don't act surprised when I pop the front wheel up
If it's got the grippy tarmac coming up to lights, of course I'm going to stoppie
You might aswell let me out of this junction, I'm only going to overtake you in a minute anyway
People at pumps who expect me to move forwards even though there is nowhere to push my bike as there's a car infront
People who stretch the hose OVER my bike because they're that impatient.
People who edge forwards whilst I'm putting my gloves back on after paying, give me 2 seconds you impatient twat
When I park in a parking space, and all of a sudden it means the person who pulls in next to me can park really close to my bike as I'm not taking the whole space up

Not really 
Although there is a couple I agree with there, do people really act like cunts to you in petrol stations?
Also, filtering, I move out the way for bikers, into the kerb, your gunna make more progress so theres no point in holding you up.
It's the bikers that scare me, doing 73 in a 30, looking for them in junctions, act like absolute twats on the motorway.
You've caught me in a bad mood tbf, sorry

Yeah mate, it's really quite annoying so I take longer
That's fair enough, I'm not gonna pretend I don't speed, I obey laws etc but if someone pulls out I can't really swear at them as I'm in the wrong!

Mate it's quality
They probably think I'm some hard cunt who will drag them out the car and beat 2 shades of shit out of them, so it's hilarious. And yep, that's the way it is, it creases me up everytime, especially when they then cower into the slow lane after I pass

And whats wrong with driving in the middle lane????
Are you real or what?
It causing traffic to slow down and tail back because the road is narrowed by selfish people not using the first lane when its empty!
