He stayed there for what seemed like ages then pulled back into middle lane and sat there at 60ish. I just let him get on with it, slowed doen till he was aaway with the wind then carried on as normal.Luckily it was a quiet stretch but scary.


I would have done him on the inside ,just like i do with every other middle lane hogger.


should of indicated and gestured him to pull over, gave him the lowdown on merits of using the motorway properly via the 4 knuckle method!

I use the m53 about 4 times a week if not more, so I will be having a look who is in the middle lane from now on smirk

Majority are repmobile drivers, I'd say 90% were BMW/Audi/Insignia/Passat fleet hire cars. Always in a hurry to get to the next set of traffic lights.
