The inside lane is beautiful, please use it
Discussion
Every day I do about 12 miles of dual carriageway driving and do wonder when coming home in particular, exactly what British drivers have against the inside lane...Tonight, i almost had it to myself on the A338, just cruising down at 60 MPH whilst the outside lane was bumper to bumper with half term day trippers and commuters leaving Bournemouth, all doing about 65...and some expensive german cars, particularly larger Mercs, just wont use anything but the outside lane
whats it all about people?!

Don't you know that the inside lane is the 'lorry lane'? whats it all about people?!
Indeed. I try to coax them in by doing that but 9/10 they just carry on regardless. 
Some stretches of Mway are appaling on lane 1, the ruts left by HGVs can often ame driving harder work than it needs to be as my car tramlines terribly. Generally the only time I'll do it is on unlit motorways at night as it gives me a few vital extra miliiseconds to avoid or brake for something like a fox on a suicide mission.
Most of the time though there is no excuse for sitting there in the middle lane and those that do should be ticketed for it, dunno if DWDCA would cover it?

Got stuck behind some absolute bint in a Picasso using the outside lane of a dual carriageway on the way home. There are lights about two miles from where we caught up with her and of course she was turning right so figured she'd get in that light ten years before she needed to.
Why do these people have licenses?

I'm sure I read it on here a few years back, on a empty road overtake them outside lane, indicate and safly pull back in to slow lane and slow down gradually allow them to pass and then indicate outside lane and overtake, repeat until they pull in. cracking at night on a empty stretch of motorway with the mlm sat in the second lane.
