Doing a fair bit more than usual in the way of motorway milage at the moment, and have noticed how few drivers these days seem to know how to rejoin the motorway from the hard shoulder. When I were a lad, green fields etc, I was taught that you first get up to speed and merge back into lane 1 when it is safe. Today it seems one just boots it from standstill on the hard shoulder into lane 1 and damn the consequences. Ignorance or part of the get out of my way I'm important mentality of the UK?
