maybe its down to the fact that some arseholes sit in the outside lane at 65-70mph when the other 2 lanes are empty?...most drivers have no sence of lane discipline, it seem to be just pick a lane and stay there which pisses me right off, if your going slower than someone else why not just move the fuck over??
true on the lane bit

but 70 mph is the speed limit .. if you have a problem with people doing the limit then you had best think again on your attitude
i drive a van for my job and always move over as much as possible to let bikes through on a motorway or normal road... dont take much to just raise ya hand and say thanks ... alot do but most dont..
you get the middle laners... thats the only lane they use... you overtake them cos they get stuck behid something slow ..then they speed up and sit behind you only overtaking when you pull back into lane 1 ..
then you get the outside lane twat that has to sit as close to the armco as possible then moves back in and out just to say im here.. move .. erm no .. i will move when i have overtaken thanks ..
or the idiot that has to be travelling at close to the sped of light.. you have to pull out to overtake , but his closing speed is rapidly out accelerating the atom ... what can you do .. sit behind the slower vehicle ?? as the other 30 reps come storming past at the same speed not letting you out???? or pull out and hope that they have the brain cell to actually think about slowing down... its not my fault you have had to slow down from breaking the sound barrier, flashing your lights wont help mate

i cant do more than 70
i dont appreciate any driver or rider sat up my arse ... for one thing it WILL never make me go faster.. the closer a bike sits to the back of my van the less chance i have of seeing him in my side mirrors
and yes i have been on a bike ... rider and passenger ... its not an easy life for bikers but sometimes they do not help in their own situation. the one reason i drive a car and not ride, is i know that i would either be banned or seriously injured within a month of getting a bike.
phew .. waiting with flame suit on now
