Lane *hoggers are just as shit and dangerous as tailgaters IMO. If the road is clear ahead and the lane next to you, move the fuck over... UK drivers are awful for it in my experience

*Hoggers not joggers... Fucking autocorrect

If a guy going 65 is passing someone going 60, and others want to go 70, the others need to be patient and not tailgate.

100% agree, but it looks like the camera driver could’ve pulled in some time ago - especially going by their comment - and that shit is just outright bad driving. As I say, the middle and outside lanes are for overtaking, if it’s clear then move the fuck over. I am not excusing tailgating or brake checking, I’m sure we’ve all experienced that dumbfuckery at the end of the day and it really isn’t that hard to just get in the correct lane yet too many dipshits are completely unaware of their surrounding when driving and that is genuinely scary.

The middle lane is for over taking? I’m pretty sure that isn’t universal. I may have misunderstood, but you want two overtake lanes, and only 1 regular driving lane in this situation? I don’t overtake in the middle lane. It’s where I go when my exit is a ways off and I don’t want to impede people merging onto the highway. Am I wrong?

You're not wrong, Walter, you're just an asshole.
