Stopping to let people out of side road...
Discussion
Not just slowing a little to give them space but actually stopping on a NSL A road, on a bend in "rush hour" causing rapid braking and queues behind!
Surely the HWC does not condone this?
FWIW I have this nearly every morning in the car on the school run/way to work resulting in my kids thinking Dad has Tourette's!

If it's the same person every time I'd be very tempted to report them so that plod can have a word because one day you might get someone going a bit quick and it'll cause an accident.
My thoughts exactly. Imagine 10+ cars all travelling at 45-55 on a NSL heading towards a 45 degree bend with a junction on that bend. First car starts to brake (car behind assumes to slow for the bend) then brakes harder and harder until stopped to let a waiting car out of the side road. The cars behind concertina up (rightly or wrongly) resulting in cars towards the back of the queue nearly rear ending each other. Muppet at the front is oblivious to the carnage behind.If it's the same person every time I'd be very tempted to report them so that plod can have a word because one day you might get someone going a bit quick and it'll cause an accident.
Okay, you should be able to stop in the distance between you and the car ahead or in the distance you can see, but in reality few drive like that and even if you do the guy behind probably isn't.
