Turning right? Make the manouvre miles before the junction.

As said above it comes down to lack of confidence and lack of training.

Well i move over well before turning right as more then likely there will be some driving god fast asleep in the outside lane in his audi that won't see you if you move over you will get the horn and headlights as you dared get in the way of the driving god. or the driving god is half awake and he see's a micra and under no circumstances must he let the micra into the outside lane as that would imply he has a small manhood.

If you are too stupid to undertake a car that is sat in the outside lane indicating right then you shouldn't be on the road

Now come on, pay attention, the whole point of this is that they get over to the right side of the road ages, sometimes miles, before the junction and sit there at quite low speeds - not indicating right until the last few metres.

Apart from it's general dangerousness undertaking is mostly impossible as there will usually be slow traffic in the left hand lane - exactly where the crawling classes belong.

p.s. I've nothing against the Micra driving population, in fact my elderly Mother-in-Law drives one, I'm sure they're jolly good little cars.

Why should it be dangerous?

Because people don't know how to left shoulder check and rarely check their mirrors when pulling in to the L/H lanes as they don't expect people to be there... i guess

Just spotted this. I see this behaviour all the time on a 40mph dual carriageway near me. Fine in rush hour stop-start traffic but completely ignorant when there is plenty of space to be in the left lane.

You are spot on because that is a common EXCUSE when an incident occurs but always ends up with the driver who changed lanes without checking properly getting the flak and quite rightly so
