This should be compulsory. The amount of congestion caused by drivers in the middle lane overtaking nothing but air must cost the economy millions of pounds each year and cause loads of accidents. I do a lot of motorway driving and it irritates the life out of me.

They should do one specifically for Audi and BMW drivers. Teaching them where the indicators are when switching lanes, or for those that have actually mastered where they are, the art of signalling before actually moving the vehicle.

i may be missing something, but if overtaking nothing but air,would that not indicate a clear Road and no congestion?

Apart from every car behind travelling faster now has to use a three-lane motorway as a dual carriageway. Then one person has to brake because the right hand lane is congested and you have a PHANTOM TRAFFIC JAM while middle-laner carries on as though nothing is wrong.

I'm sorry, with this education we could learn to disregard the speed limit and move in a lane to let the queue of traffic determined to box one in behind the next lorry continue their congested procession at rakish 71mph.

Or even just drivers sticking to the middle lane, the middle lane safety 'myth'

or the police could just do their jobs and prosecute drivers for middle lane hogging

I realise this can be dangerous, but I cannot help tailgate and constantly flash middle lane drivers or over-take them, put my hazards on and brake. There should be more done to penalise middle lane drivers, its an attitude problem not education

Safest place to drive. Only 3% of accidents happen on the motorway. The majority happen at junctions and roundabouts.
