when on the motorway why do people stay in the middle lane. When they are not overtaking anything and the inside lane is empty it does my head in ( i'm a white van man king of the road )

I remember when 2 apply 2 B a Driving Instructor, U needed 2 have at least more than 5-10 years driving experience.
Not now, JUST two & 1/2 years & U can qualify 2 teach others 2 drive!
Madness & a prime example of why driving standards in the UK R so abysmal.
How can U seriously B able 2 teach some1 else when U're still learning URself!
& the bad-press about White-van man is MOSTLY uncalled 4 & based on a MYTH.
My son-in-law is a white-van man, there's much he could teach some duff drivers!

Cause they are stupid. It's even worse when they drive in the right hand lane not overtaking or anything to overtake on a 2 lane motorway - I have undertaken a few and then I look in my mirror and they move over

pure laziness, or not confident enough at overtaking. really really annoying, especially when they do 60 miles an hour. i personally think you should get fined and points for going too slow on a motorway and the speed limit should be 80 after midnight till 4 am xx

The only car you really control is your own, don't get bent about what other people do, just drive YOUR rig...they build more and more cars every year, and don't take the old ones off the road, so cumulatively there's more cars on the road each year. That's just one of them in front of you...80 million to go and then you can drive as fast as u want! LOL

I don’t like to change lanes, and if I have to move over and then back in 90 seconds I will just stay in the middle lane. I hate people who see others as objects to pass, and have to cut in and out of traffic with inches between my bumper and theirs.
If you rush and pass and dive in traffic you arrive like 5 minutes prior to me. I have also arrived ahead of them as they were stopped for a ticket, or even as they were involved in and accident.
Driving is a privilege, and courteous drivers are rewarded with low insurance rates and cars with out dents.

Perhaps to avoid the dangerous, psychotic, selfish and verbally violent antics of White Van Man?
