Agree with the OP in a way... I mean there's idiotic driving and then there's going around a slow a** driver in the overtaking lane :lol:

I doubt any of us are pure angel drivers but there is definitely a difference in being a little bit cheeky and just out right dangerous:headhurt:

No but some people have halos in their headlights. :innocent:

^^^ I was going to mention the above, there is no direct offence or road traffic law for "middle lane hogging", it comes under careless driving and although the above is factual, its going to be a lot harder for Police to prosecute for careless driving sadly. with a little bit of reading apparently as of September 2016 only 135 people have been charged with the offence, so less than 50 people a year.

 

Personally it deserves its own separate offence and with smart motorways now in place, prosecutions should be a doddle, just like speed cameras.
