.... She's not kidding. I saw her driving a trolley in asda the other week and she had no consideration for other users in the same lane at all!!!

Yes.Driving up the motorway to Chester on friday afternoon it was a bit of a free-for-all. The middle lane was quite empty (everyone must have been scared of being accused of hogging it),thefast3rd lane was chocca and going slow because no-one would move over out of it and theslow
Was thinking though...... What if you are doing the 70 mph speed limit anyway in the middle lane. Apart from emergency vehicles, nothing should be legally going past you. Should they still fine you then?
I've witnessed so many near misses up ahead when cars from both inside and outside lanes move into the middle lane at the same time. Luckily ,so far,these drivers have taken evasive action and had a gap to manoeuvre back into in then nick of time.cars from the 3rd lane keep pulling in too early while clearly seeing that I am intending to overtake and nobody behind them.
When there's a chance, I always move over into the 3rd lane to let someone overtake in the middle lane so they're not forced to slow down unnecessarily - such as if a lorry is doing 50, they're doing 60 and I'm doing 70.

Clearly drivers need to be properly looking, but it isn't helped by how few people indicate when moving left a lane. A lot of people will indicate when moving out to overtake but don't bother when moving back in again.
I have solved this problem at a stroke
I have done away with a middle lane and we shall now have four lanes from Stafford junction 13
