middle lane

Apparently it's been a while since I've driven on a proper motorway (the M54 really doesn't count)
Went up to Worcester yesterday, which involves small amounts of the M5. Which, unlike the M50 and M54, has three lanes and therefore a middle lane.

Seriously, why do people sit in the middle lane all the time? It's really stupid and really annoying. But quite fun when the middle lane is full of traffic and doing about 40 and the fast lane is going at 50 and I'm the only car in the slow lane and I'm happily going past everyone at about 55. heh. suckers.

Also, foglights. Stop it!

Drove through the Forest on my way back from Cheltenham today, which was a nice reminder why I don't tend to go through the Forest ever :P
Still, that bit of road reminds me of scary trips in the minibus to the climbing wall in Gloucester. That must be, ooh, 7 or 8 years ago now...

    Middle-lane hoggers are teh suck. I see loads and loads of them on the M6/M42/M40/M4/M5 when I go home... Come to think of it, they're on every motorway I've ever been on. And 99% of the time, the people doing it are old. Grrr

    Foglights should be banned. They're almost never necessary. Either that or i should be allowed to drive around with my main beams on in reponse to any incorrectly (in my opinion, of course) illuminated foglights. It's only fair, after all
