Told him to go up to 40-50 on the hard shoulder and not pull out and he does exactly what the officer told him not to do 😂
At that point I would have pulled him over again and told him he's not driving anymore.
I wonder which one of his mates took his driving test for him🤔 Just saying😄
Problem there seemed to be lack of comprehension combined with an explanation involving more advanced English grammar, considering the person's obvious limited English.
@@fredscratchet1355 Probably got a foreign license
and then the vid stops, just AS he is going against what the cop instructed, which was the title of the vid? wtf?
am i missing something here?
The scary part is the driver had ZERO idea what he was doing was wrong and even by the end was still cleared confused
I think the " oh Jesus christ" at the end, when he pulled straight into lane one from the hard shoulder summed it up nicely
That does tend to happen when you don't speak the language
This guy seemed to be a recent import from East Asia, but even dyed-in-the-wool native Britons (or whatever, it's a universal thing) can become highly confused, even affronted and outraged when you confront them on lane hogging. Because this jars their perception of themselves as "very safe drivers".
Somebody has to tell these slowpokes that slow does not necessarily mean safe!
Or acting.
@@lightyagami1752 South Asia. India Pakistan or Bangladesh.
The driving standards in this County are shocking. 90% of people do not keep left on the motorway. Its a disgrace and something should be done. I drive all over the UK & Europe and its only here where people can't drive!!! Motorways would run freely if they were used properly...😡
Absolutely agree
You wanna come to Northern ireland, the outside lanes of dual carriageways and 'motorways' are constantly mis used here, shocking behaviour, made worse by totally oblivious drivers driving below available speed limits! I arrived from the south east England and I was horrified how bad the problem is here!! The Cops are hopeless as far as in concerned, so I now undertake as flashing lights doesnt seem to wake people up. We also have newly passed drivers on restricted plates on max permissbale of 45mph in the outside lanes! I hate it and feel I shouldn't have to undertake, but its the only way to make progress here!!!!!!!
it's because we aren't taught on them. even tho instructors can how take you one many still don't because they see motorway lessons as something to be done post test.
@@TheWeepingDalek I agree that doesnt help but - keep left unless overtaking is a pretty simple rule to follow...
Do you do much Euro driving?. UK is around the top 5 safest countries to drive in.
I wish they would do this more often.
I genuinely cannot remember the last time I saw a Police car on a motorway!! 😮
As a regular driver of the motorway i find myself taking the role of a police officer flashing idiots to move over hogging lanes. The other day, a middle lane hogger wqas causing lane 3 to bottle neck, so i pulled in flashed him to move over and he did and as i passed, he flipped the bird 🤣🤣🤣 oh well
Exactly.
@@real-eyes-realise-real-lies If the hogger has lane 2 moving slower why go all the way over to lane 3 into a bottleneck?
@@Seanmcdhuibhne m1 has 4 lanes. I was in the outside, pulled into lane 3 ( the new middle lane hog zone) flashed him to move into lane 2.
As an hgv driver i see a lot of drivers enter the motorways and go straight into the middle lane or lane 3 of 4, regardless of traffic conditions. Im also aware when approaching off-slips of cars in lanes 2 or 3 that are doing about 60 mph as they often cut across lanes to exit the motorway at the last second. They are the same people.
Funny that as someone who drives the motorway every day hgv drivers are the worst drivers on the road, closely followed by immigrants but at least they have an excuse “ no license “
@keidicko yup, the 'pull into the next lane and indicate at the same time without looking' brigade. Don't even get me started on the Duelling Lorries that clog up dual carriageways like the A34 just because one can go 1/4mph faster than the other, until they come to a hill....
@@keidicko you probably couldn't get a HGV license.
I think it should be mandatory to have practical motorway training as part of the test??? 👍👍
@gregpodmore2850 Agreed! It must be said that the idiots in cars far outnumber the few bad hgv drivers, who mostly have foreign plates on. I too have seen the practices described by the OP.
Wonder who sat his test for him 🤔
Driving test has nothing to do with the motorway.
About time it's included in driving lessons
@@Indoor_Carrot you still have to learn the highway code for the written test though, and you can't take the physical test until you pass it.
@@mydogeatspuke nobody can remember the theory test questions after they've passed it. There's a huge difference between ticking a box in a multi-choice question and practically doing something.
Imagine a first aid course just telling you "do cpr" and you never practicing it. You'd never be able to reliably do it.
@@Indoor_Carrot spot on, there's a need for minimum competency and basic motorway technique because SO many people still do the basics like enter and exit motorways too slowly or just merge without giving way, which are all crazy things to do and contribute massively to congestion at junctions. Really frustrates me as a regular motorway driver.
I honestly didn’t think there were any Police like this in UK any more (polite, helpful and keeping us safe). Well done !
He might well be like this all the time, but could the presence of the camera make a difference?
You need to get off Facebook then
@@Indoor_Carrot it’s honestly concerning how many people have a severely distorted view of the police as a result of news and social media.
He was too lenient.
He's being filmed!
Seeing how confused he was, I'm guessing that lane discipline isn't really important in his country of origin.
That or he doesn't care
Motorways probably do not exist in his country of origin.
Plenty of people born and bred in the UK who also don't see lane discipline as a priority. What's his country of origin got to do with anything?
there are some people who just shouldn't be allowed to have a driving license and he's one of them!
I seriously think a lot of people that are on the roads do not have a license or have never taken a driving test
Licence...
Great policing. Well done.
I disagree. It was clear that the driver believed he was correct to stay in the middle lane and the officer did not try to re-educate him. He also didn't make enough of an effort to ensure he had understood his instructions on re-joining - he should have asked the driver to repeat them back. Poor policing.
@@maxb5028 Think he was leaving that to the retraining course. He clearly didn't understand English too well, the hard shoulder of a motorway isn't somewhere to spend any more time than you have to.
@@maxb5028 shouldn’t be on the road to be re educated. The highway code has not changed much on the usage of lanes, what a terrible explanation for this poor standard of driving. Wake up.
I'm guessing highway code isn't his first language.
Aye
And I 'm guessing that he's probably an illegal immigrant that floated over in a rubber dinghy!
@@almuric1baggins337 nice bait u muppet lol
@@kransurfing Perhaps English is not your first language also; given your incoherent mumblings!
@@almuric1baggins337 And I'm guessing that you're a bit of a racist. But hey, it's all guesswork here, isn't it?...
We often see middle lane hoggers at 50mph lacking situation awareness and the chaos they're causing behind them with vehicles bunching up leading to congestion. It's as if they drive blinkered with steering wheel gripped tightly, gazing straight ahead only.
Avoid bunching up and congestion, just passing the hogger on left.
And 9/10 it's either a woman are dark skinned person.
@@notme1345 ...interesting statistic there mate
@@molly9867 I've taken a Talley over 10 years and he's correct. I can email over the findings if you would like?
@molly 20yrs on the road.. just look next time someone is hogging the middle lane you will see.
And he went straight onto the motorway 😂 after the copper told him what to do. Some people man
makes you wonder.. this video did not give me the impression this person understood what he was doing wrong nor he understood the instructions he was given -
Not indicating has got steadily worse over last 10 years
It's difficult to understand anything someone says when you don't speak the language
That's his own fault, he wanted to live here.
The guy has no driving licence or driving education. They borrow each other licences and pass them around .
ahahhah the end. defenition of an npc right there
Lane hogging (especially middle lane hogging) has become rife over the last 20 years or so.
It's definitely worse now than ever.
If there's room to undertake, there's room for them to have gotten out of the way in the first place
In North America you can pass in any lane but I'm not sure some muppets are responsible enough to use their mirrors correctly and pass safely in the UK🤔
@@GManWrites You can do so in UK also. Not many Brits know that.
@@mikehunter2844 Only in certain circumstances such as slow traffic moving in queues and your lane is moving faster than the lane on your right, another example is when average speeds are in operation and the speed is posted on the overhead gantry but you are going faster than the lane on your right. There are other reasons as well but by and large the rule is keep left unless overtaking.
@@GManWrites
The UK Highway Code on overtaking on left are advisory wording. If a rule states you Must or Must Not do it then that rule is a legal requirement.
@Mike Hunter I think it's only an offence if after undertaking you change lane's. I do this all the , it has no effect on most drivers who just carry on lane hogging . The old adage " Keep left unless overtaking " doesn't work with quite a few motorists. 👍👍
I learnt to drive in Australia in the 1970s and at that time we had no 'keep left' law. I came to the UK in 1989 and was pleasantly surprised that the 'keep left' was observed. Sadly, as the years have gone on the driving standards have dropped and now it's like the 'Wild West' out there.
There's a lot of third world driving out there!
I regularly drive on the M1 freeway between Brisbane and the Gold Coast, and you see so many muppets just sitting in lane 4 when there's a huge gap in lane 3.
A certain ethnic group are well known for having had other people take the test. Often small, short sighted, driving luzury SUVs. Parking is a 5 minute multi back and forth operation; joining motorways often involves SLOWING DOWN on the access ramp@@coover65
you say that but standerds during tests for cars and motorcycles have gone up lol.
The drive stopped just didn't know the highway code around the motorway, so he wasn't even trying to lane hog, but worrying that a driver can be using the motorway without knowledge of how it works, and worse, that other drivers around him have no idea he just doesn't understand the highway code.
Simple answer. He shouldn't be on the roads then
Points! He's passed a driving test therefore he should know how to do it properly
@@colinscutt5104 you can drive on a non-uk license for 12 months before you need to take a uk driving test. he could have got his license anywhere
@@thisthingsibelief4791 thats insane
@Colin scutt yep, they need to change this crazy rule. Maybe anyone from abroad who wishes to drive on UK roads should take a cut down version of a theory test online and pass before they are allowed to drive.
I hate people sitting at 75mph in the outside lane holding me up when I'm trying to break the law properly.
Your comment sounds like sarcasm. If it is, you should know that the rule is to keep left unless overtaking, it doesn’t matter how fast or slow you’re going. Drivers do not have the right to sit in lane three just because they’re doing 75mph.
@@Mark-Stone who'd be overtaking them apart from emergency vehicles?
@@gettingbettereveryday350 That’s irrelevant. The rule is keep left unless overtaking; your speed is as meaningless to this rule as other people’s speed.
@@Mark-Stone that's a long way of saying no-one.
@@gettingbettereveryday350 You think that was a long answer? Two sentences? No wonder you’re struggling to understand why your speed is irrelevant to the fact that you should keep left unless overtaking.
They should utilize the overhead gantry signs to advise drivers against hogging the middle lane.
Keep left unless overtaking!
Its not difficult is it 🙄
I never had motorway lessons, they weren't heard of when I passed my test, but I was always taught, the left lane is the driving lane, the other two are overtaking lanes unless you're instructed to use a different lane for any reason.
Or if lane 1 is clear ahead then stay in it and undertake.
@@mikehunter2844 if you are in lane 1 (the driving lane) and you don't leave lane 1 but you pass the car, that is "making progress in the driving lane" a undertaking and overtaking are manoeuvres, so to undertake, you would have to be in the overtaking lane, pull into the driving lane, pass the obstructing vehicle in the driving lane and then pull back out into the overtaking lane, that is illegal and would get you in trouble if you got caught, it's recognised as dangerous driving, making progress in the driving lane could be argued as technically you've done nothing wrong
@@andrewgage6942 If you stay in lane 1 it would be impossible to pass the car that's making progress in the driving lane.
As long as you don't weave in and out of lanes dangerously there is no law that prohibits you from moving from lane 2 into 1 after an overtake, undertake a car that's in 2 then back again to lane 2 to overtake.
driving licence bought i am sure
Guaranteed
At least that's one less lane hogger 😆
Probably doesn't understand what he did wrong and will do it again.
Multiply this traffic copper by a thousand and we might have a working road system again.
Probably only used to driving Donkey's. 🤣🤣.
Foreigner doesn't understand rules of road
He must've taken an English driving test its assumed, I suspect someone else did the their and test for him??? 😂😂😂😂
Hate to say it but this driver’s command of the language says it all!
At least he didn’t spout the usual ‘I’m in the FAST lane’.😂
Lane hogging is still a massive problem . I drove on the M25 last week and lane 1 is rarely never used on a Sunday when hgv traffic is minimal .
No one’s in it and it causes lane 3 to slow down
If lane 1 is empty then why do drivers complain about hoggers?
People who say a lane hogger brings 2 overtaking down to 1 are nearly as bad as the hogger.
After he watched him pull straight back on to the motorway he should have taken his license off him immediately. That person obviously can’t drive properly.
This exactly if he can’t follow a simple instruction from an officer like that he needs to take his test again especially after pulling him over four lane hogging
Really does my head in while these idiots who think the motorways are for them only . Totally ignorant and have no idea how they slow down the movement of cars . If I was a traffic cop I would book every single one 🤬🤬
Here here, I completely agree with you, on the basis there were more cops on the roads!!
If lane 2 is moving slower then pass on either side. The ones who won't undertake are as bad as the hogger.
Travelling on the M1 despite the penalties I often see drivers using their mobiles so it’s not just lane hogging that’s a problem.
In my experience middle lane hoggers are generally drivers who are not confident and use the excuse that they like the middle lane because they then have a choice of lanes if they need to change. Most are aware outside lanes are overtaking lanes, but they don't care. It's rarely policed unfortunately.
Unfortunately there are quite a lot of drivers like this.
In over 50 years and a million miles only once seen someone pulled for driving endlessly in the middle lane.
I was stunned too..
Everyone knows things don't happen unless you see them happen.
Only shipping lanes he had to worry about to get here.
I account this every day, as a courier driver, should be more motorway police to stop and issue fines to those who consider they owe the roads, perhaps unmarked police 🚔 cars 🤔
no money to be made in that
Well said 👏
which lane do you drive in??
@Dee Haytch hi 👋, inside lane unless overtaking....
Obviously don't need GCSE English to be a delivery driver! You both have that in common 🙃
The driver replied with “yeah” a few times… but obviously didn’t understand the Police advice 😔
I was driving on the motorway last week when I approached a car on the hard shoulder. It started moving forwards, indicating to rejoin the motorway so I moved into lane 2 for it. As I got there - still somewherre near the speed limit - the car moved straight into lane 2 at 15~20mph and continued in that lane...I couldn't have stopped but I did get around her.
She did nothing wrong. She's a woman!
I always exaggerate my return to lane one like that after passing them in lane three 😂
I do the same I do it slowly with my indicator on for a long time with hope they notice. I do it safely and with consideration for other road users
ahh the old swoop across the nose.. i know it well
The issue here is the amount of foreign drivers who were not trained on our roads. 1 in 4 drivers are not British born.
Greatest love affair since Romeo and Juliet: lane huggers and the middle lane 💘
This reminds me of the Rob Byrydon sketch, as he drove along gingerly in the middle lane, ( ...known to some as the 1st overtaking to avoid nit picking) : " I must be in the correct lane, look, everyone's following me!"
These really help me. Thank you, channel 5, keep uploading these. These help me in the UK.
Sounds like you need some more lessons 🤔
And apply for a uk test including theory. Stay in lane 1 too….
Lane hoggers and people that don't indicate are the worst. Watching this was cathartic 😁
The problem is that the UK recognised his license (that is odds on he bought) he has from the EU country he comes from where passing a test is quite easy if you have the funds / connections.
He seemed to be of Chinese origin by the way he spoke!
Another fine British citizen
It's as if they were never taught how to drive on a motorway whilst having lessons to pass their test... oh that's right, they NEVER were... 🤦♂🤦♂
It's about time motorway driving was compulsory in learning and part of the test!
Agreed totally!!
as much as i could agree, there are counties in the uk that don't have any motorways, making a learning and a test very very difficult.
@@MarcP666 Then you amend the test to be able to pass to drive on motorways or not, a bit like automatic and manual. If you are in a county that has no motorways (and you're likely to never use one) then take the non-motorway test. If at a later date you wish to use motorways there can be a separate advanced test just for motorways that you can do to allow you to drive on motorways. Either way people would be learning to drive on motorways and be taught by a professional before driving on a motorway.
Finally FINALLY a police video i'm with all the way 👍 excellent.
Some people still call lane 1 'the slow lane' & lane 3 'the fast lane'
I always ask what's the speed limit in lane 3 & get 70 as an answer. I then ask the same question for lane 2, & then 1. Same answer 70. They then usually answer . Oh, yea! not really thought about it that way.
Most people think if lane 4 is doing 50mph then that's the speed limit for all other lanes.
Next to not indicating, this is my joint biggest annoyance on the road.
It’s the absolute basics fgs.
And why this guy didn’t get fined again for barrelling onto the motorway is beyond me.
Talk about half a job.
And as to whether I know if he WAS stopped again, I’m sure it would have been added.
Ask car car drivers what is the speed of lane one and listen to the answer
inexperienced to motorway ettiquete? however show him a dingy!!!
Around the M3 Ascot junction the problem used to be fast lane hogging. The Alphas joining the motorway naturally head straight for lane 3 leaving lanes 1 & 2 clear. I once had lanes 1 & 2 all to myself for 2 miles. I was doing 70mph in lane 1, the queue in lane 3 was doing 60 at most.
Quite common that, lane 1 is usually the clearest, safest and fastest lane to be in these days, as the other two lanes are so busy :-)
@@MJ-kf8zl I agree. When traffic is slow, lane 1 is the safest place to be, especially if the hard shoulder is still there. It’s not worth getting in lane 3 for an extra 5mph.
You mean Bagshot - Ascot's several miles from the M3. Nice try to make the M3 sound posh! 🤣
@@Hamish_A I was working in Ascot, so to me it was the Ascot exit.
I know this stretch very well and lane hogging is terrible along there. I'll be in my works van in lane 1 at about 73-74mph and every time I want to overtake I either get someone who's been lane hogging sitting at the same speed as me or as I'm trying to pull back in they speed up. It gets very annoying as soon as I pull back in behind them they then slow back down.
Worse than some drivers constantly moving in and out of lanes every 5 seconds to overtake, speeding up and slowing down. Smooth and consistent driving with the minimum of manoeuvres is what should be aimed for.
Bravo Mr policeman
If you ask people what annoys them most about driving on the motorway, most people will tell you it's lane hogging.
And who is it that lane hogs? Most people.
The driver should be banned from driving, if they don't know how to use the motorway, which he obviously didn't, how bad is the rest of his driving abilities? Centre lane hogging needs to be stopped, it's dangerous and inconsiderate to those who are attempting to drive properly. I'm about to go to work, I have to drive over 20 miles of motorway, apart from trucks I will probably be the only car driver to use the driving lane, and where it goes into four lanes, there will be trucks and myself in the driving lane, nothing in the first overtaking lane, and cars and vans in lanes three and four of the motorway
I suspect a lot of drivers don't even know they're supposed to move left unless overtaking.
Cop, what are you talking about saying "lane 2 to lane 3 to lane 4 to overtake him"? Isn't it a bit of lack of knowlede to not know undertaking up to 70mph is legal in UK?
He sounded like a recent arrival to our shores and probably got his driving licence in a lucky bag. Just one of the many problems with mass migration into the U.K. of people whose standards are far below ours (not just driving).
So why you let them in?
It's not the British people, it's our worse than useless politicians (of all political parties).
@@Georgesspierre He doesn't have time to patrol the entire U.K border with a machine gun.
@@p.istaker8862 Exactly. - Wait what, a machine gun?
That sounds racist, but, it is true. Well, for most of them..
Couple of weeks ago Saturday morning 5.30am m25 police car and me in Lane 1 doing 70mph catch up to a big van in Lane 4 doing about 50-55mph after a couple of minutes copper gets cheesed off moves in to lane 4 puts sign on back window 'use correct lane' van moves over to lane 2 copper comes off at next junction van moves back in to lane 4 🙄
I bet he's gone straight back to lane 3 🤣
Proceeds to drive on the hard shoulder until pulled over again
did he just do what he was just told not to do and pull out into lane 1 at the end of the vid😂
100% agree with the officer’s assessment. Lane hogging is the top frustration on UK motorways. Why is it that the same drivers obey the “move to the slowest lane” in France and as soon as they hit the UK roads they sit in the middle lane???!
Clearly hasn't passed his test
Why did I know he'd pull straight out into traffic?
Whilst undertaking is not illegal, it is dangerous. The thing is, lane hogging causes this issue. It's really simple. Just use the left lane unless you are overtaking...
Undertaking isn't dangerous.
Middle lane hogging IS dangerous and completely unnecessary.
@Ratski75 in part true. But undertaking is cause you are in a blind spot for most driver's
@@Sidneyyoungblood75
Totally agree.
There is no law against it If there was then it would fall under careless or dangerous driving.
@@madmick9205 People who have blind spots bring this upon themselves. The vast majority of drivers including instructors do not know how to set their mirrors up properly. You should not be able to see any of your car in either sideview mirror. They should be set that you can see around 2ft away from your car when looking straight into them. People who have a vehicle in their "blind spot" should ask themselves where was that vehicle before it got in there in the first place.
It's not lane hoggers that bother me, it's 40 ton lorries who are twenty feet behind me at 60mph.
He goes from lane 2 to lane 3 to lane 4, flashes the lights to tell him to get out of the way. The cop never says a word about him tailgating the hogger.
I could never understand why so many drivers do that when they can pass a hogger on the left.
Tailgaters are more dangerous than hoggers.
when they can pass a hogger on the left. because technically , that is " undertaking " , which is illegal.
@@richard6440
That's not what the highway code says. It says "do not" do it. For it to be illegal it has to say you "must not" do it.
Shame the end was cut off but it looks like he was heading onto the main road straight away.
That's why the video clip has the title it does. 🙄
Ooh get you!😄
As the officer said I want you to accelerate to 40 45 on the hard shoulder before moving onto the motorway, I thought they'll never do that, most never do. Never been in an accident, but seen loads in their rear mirror.......
He doesn't even speak English properly, yet you expect him to understand the rules written in English?
Another foreign driver who is not aware of the rules of the motorway. These people are everywhere
Stay on hard shoulder until you get 50mph then pull out. Don't just pull out.
Driver just pulls out "oh Jesus christ"🤣🤣🤣
I drive many miles on motorways and have never seen the police ever pull anyone in for lane hogging..why?.
Because the police you saw weren't doing a documentary for chanel 5
Police resources are very stretched thanks to the Tories, so lane hogging seems like an over the top thing to spend those few resources on.
I wish middle lane hogging in Australia was a thing. The default seems to be the right lane, nose to tail with an empty middle lane. Infuriating
Lane hogging is classed as Driving Without Reasonable Consideration For Other Road Users, and that is a sub-section of Careless Driving. So my question is, on an empty motorway except for one car in lane 2 how could it fall under CD?
You wouldn't believe this unless it was caught on camera 🙈 unbelievable
You would if you drive on Britains motorways regularly. There are some places where it is more common than others (Around Birmingham seems to be a spot for significant poor driving).
Can’t really get my head around the idea that a police officer would allow somebody to drive away if they felt they had to explain something as basic as how to rejoin a motorway. 🤯
He has no legal power to stop him doing so.....
The truck driver at the beginning cut across two lanes, not three. He was in the inside lane (aka Lane 1), and cut across to the outside lane (aka Lane 3). That's 2 lanes.
There weren't many cars driving from Kent to Bedfordshire between 00:00 and 02:00 on Boxing day morning this year, but 9/10 of those I did see were all in the wrong lane. I just don't understand it.
This one didn’t understand a word of what the cop said to him. No surprise they’re driving like this they don’t even have lanes where they come from.. makes you wonder how he got his hands on a driving license to begin with.
The middle lane is an overtaking lane. Simple. So why do so many people not get it? Instead, they’d rather rule the road by holding up traffic, causing danger behind them, causing stress and anxiety in fellow drivers and being an obstacle to efficient movement of traffic, people and goods. This country can no longer afford middle lane huggers and I applaud this traffic officer. 👏
In all honesty lane hogging is a huge problem here in the UK. I'm confident to say that 85% of drivers do not have a clue how to use motorways. They join the motorway and go straight for lane 2,3 or even 4 even though lane 1 is empty for miles ahead. And then you pull up behind them, flash the lights to let them know to move over and they have no clue what your problems is. How can it not even cross your mind your in the wrong lane when you've got people overtaking and.undertaking you all the time ?
Why would you pull up behind a hogger when lane 1 is empty?
Overtaking him, cause I don't wanna undertake...
@@adrianbartoszszurlej8673 So what would you do if the hogger was in the outside lane 3?
should be 5k fine and license taken.
that way EVERY driver in UK will behave and drive properly. Until then their ego will be sky high.
Please send this cop to Switzerland. This whole country loves driving slow in the "overtaking" lane.
If you have the daily pleasure of heading from the North circular on to the M11 to Stansted airport you get middle lane hoggers every journey and you can bet they are Uber cabs, I think it’s compulsory to be oblivious to your surroundings in the Job description 😂
I do at least 20,000 miles a year and noticed that at least 30% of drivers HOG THE MIDDLE LANE this is dangerous, encouraging road rage and reduces the motorways from three lanes to two !!
This is illegal police should be stopping all these motorists or on camera and £100 fiines and 3 points on their licenses for not driving with due care and attention and disregard for other road users, against motorway regulations , plus send all on a awareness course . That would send a message to others, and reduce deaths and accidents on motorways !!
Doesn't matter what lane the illegal lane hogger is in. The motorway won't be reduced from 3 lanes to 2. There is always 2 lanes to pass.
"Ah Jesus Christ" and Mr lane hoggers back in the middle lane,,better rebook him another driver education course. 😏🙄🤣
tailgating is worse than lane hogging, don't get me wrong lane hogging is bad, but tailgating is dangerous.....driving closer than 2 seconds (minimum) IS TAILGATING ...obey the 2-second rule people and be safe
I hate people who sit in the right lane
Ya, middle lane isn't so bad, I'm kind of surprised they stopped him. It's hogging the fast lane (left lane here in Canada) that really makes you an idiot.
@@wilfdarr middle is so bad. You are diminishing the motorway down to just 2 lanes. Especially when traffic is quiet. Keep left unless over taking. How hard is it to understand?!?!?
@@scriabin1976 Doesn't matter whether he's hogging the middle lane or outside lane 3 or not. There are still 2 lanes to pass.
Not allowed to pass on the inside.. and if you want to go below the speed limit stay in the left lane what are you not getting about this? Or are you one of those people getting in everybody else's face all day long
@@glennbeadshaw727 Somebody was winding you up. It's quite legal to undertake in UK.
middle lane hogging should make the fine 500 quid more incentive for the police to do them all
motorways would flow better
also should be fines for driving less than 60 mph as that's also dangerous.
funny how no speed limits on the autobahn in Germany and have hardly any accidents.
so all people moaning about speeders
take a leaf of the germans
Having frequently driven in Germany autobahns ex the German take a very dim view of incompetent driving!
@aveedub7403 yes I also have driven the autobahns and agree yes they do.
As an ex-HGV driver class one of 50+years driving has got steadily worse over the years without a doubt especially when joining or leaving the Motorway. It’s probably down to the increase in traffic volume over the years,people joining the motorway trundle down the slip road and join the first lane without at a low speed without a thought of vehicles coming up behind them which causes that vehicle to swerve out of this slow moving vehicle,sometimes this cause’s multi vehicle pile ups all because the idiot joining the motorway hasn’t built up enough speed to allow for drivers in the first lane travelling at motorway speeds,people towing heavy caravans with low powered cars are famous for theses manoeuvre’s causing vehicle pile ups,it’s time people who want to tow these caravans were made to take a test to see if they are competent to handle them, the number of accidents I’ve seen over the years involving caravans on motorways is unbelievable but it’s always someone else’s fault when the police turn up,driving on a motorway is a different ball game because of the weight and speed of vehicles compared to A-roads,i grant you not all HGV drivers are the same using their weight and size to Bully other drivers,see it everyday when using the motorway they pull out on vehicles as they are being overtaken without checking what’s along side them causing them to swerve into other vehicles and causing carnage.
He could literally do this all day every day on the M20.
And the M5 and the M6 and probably every motorway. If they got a bonus for every middle lane hogger then they would probably outnumber those speeding.
Problem is the only time I see a police car is on these shows, IRL where are they? Too busy making TV shows to do real police work?
Any three lane road.
It looked like after you advised him what to do pulling off the hard shoulder he ignored your advice and pulled straight out,
Middle lane hoggers cause danger for other drivers
Big white arrows pointing left might give them a clue
Or don't hogg written on lane
I suspect big signs on carriageways would be ignored as well as white lines! Fine and point them off road, or re-take test with motorway instruction as well!
Looks like the driver was pulling out before getting up to speed in the hard shoulder.
