Police view of lane hoggers
Discussion
Before I email various Chief Plods/Commissioners about why they aren't doing anything about the numbskulls that populate the middle lane, or in the case of four-lane motorways, the third lane, has anyone already done this?
I wonder whether the reply is going to be something about it being safer for some motorists to do this, or something snide about me speeding when I catch them up. Plus, of course, the usual click-and-drag paragraphs about how seriously they take this and what's being done and the improving safety record blahblahblah.
Lane discipline seemed to be a lot better on the M1, but on the M25 it's dreadful. I'm surprised that plod doesn't boost the nickrate and the income from fines by putting a copper on a bridge with a smartphone. They would catch at least a hundred per hour.
