  • As an HGV driver, there's not much more frustrating than those that hog the middle lane, especially when we need to overtake a slower vehicle. it's not only thoughtless, but dangerous and also illegal in the UK.

    Flashing presumes the hogger uses his mirrors! Lovely stretch of road.

    Yep, another selfish person lane hogging.
    Those who say it's safer to stay in one lane due to less accidents (crashes) and not change lanes, shouldn't be driving if they can't find it in their driving capacity to SAFELY change lanes.
    Once you've overtaken, move to the left, don't go hogging a lane and inconvenience other drivers.

      Yes exactly as the very left lane on any road is the normal driving lane and the other lanes are for overtaking or for turning right, it’s ok if you’re in the middle lane overtaking someone in lane 1 but if you’re sat there in lane 2 then people in lane 1 have to do 2 lane changes to overtake you and then do another 2 lane changes to move back into lane 1!

      @@zero-one562 Lane hogging is an offence. Undertaking is not. If a hogger is doing 40 in lane 2, 3 or 4. on a motorway, the speed limit in lane 1 still remains 70mph.

    The pointy finger is a bit late as it points at the silver SUV instead of the blue clio which actually is the one appearing to cause the issues. Causing obstruction by failing to move back into the running lane after overtaking is a careless and inconsiderate driving offense. It is worth noting that tailgating, agre4ssive driving and cutting in front (which is something that happens a bit when someone isn't as quick to move back into the running lane as another would like them to, is actually the more serious offence of dangerous driving. More frustrating are the "both lane hoggers" that prevent a merge-in-turn from functioning correctly who increase the queue size because they hold some idiotic notion they are preventing someone from so-called queue-jumping. Also the fact that so many drivers insist on being right up the bumper of the car in front instead of leaving space for the vehicle in the other lane to merge, you're making the traffic much worse. Leave them to it, don't get involved and submit the clip to the police. Thats the safe way to deal with it

      Zero intention... the other driver didn't even bother wait to see their intention. If you count, you can see that if they move over when you say then they will cut the driver with the dash cam because they are only one second ahead. So the moment the driver probably thought about signalling is when they looked in their mirror and saw a car tailgating them. At this point signalling does nothing. I have done this plenty of times to indicate my intention to move over but a tailgater will ignore your signal and just undertake you. They lack patience and brain cells. Better to be predictable and stay where you are and let them break the law so they get out of your way.

    I don`t understand the problem? The middle lane is for cruising and other lane is for passing and the lane on the other side is when you are leaving or getting on the highway or is very slow. If you are going to "hog" a lane the middle lane is the lane to do exactly that. If you want to pass YOU go into the fast lane and pass, that is what the passing / fast lane is there for.

    • @kumfydash
      @kumfydash  3 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Wrong, the law is -
      You should always drive in the left-hand lane if the road ahead is clear.
      You should return to the left-hand lane as soon as you have safely passed slower-moving vehicles.
      There is no such thing as a fast lane, cruising lane etc etc, they are all myths perpetuated by those ******* that drive that way, the very same ******* that think if you flash your headlights at traffic lights, it'll make them change 🙄

      @@SteveMcIlhennie The problem is people generally don't expect to be overtaken on the left, if they're hogging the middle lane they're also probably clueless enough to not look or indicate before changing lanes, i've seen people nearly crash into each other countless times because of that, the general standard of driving in the uk is poor enough as it is, we don't need any more reasons for people to have accidents. It's really not worth it as you can't predict what the person in the middle lane is going to do. changing lanes is perfectly safe if you do it properly although it can get pretty annoying if you have to go around middle lane hoggers all the time but then we're back to square 1. you can't look at this video and not see how much safer that entire situation would be for everyone on the road if they weren't hogging the middle lane. just don't be a middle lane hogger and especially don't go 20mph under the speed limit in the middle lane like most of those clowns do lol
