I'll start it off.........
Is it just me or did all lorry drivers go to the same driving school??
For the past few months I have been driving from London to York every couple of weeks and I have noticed a VERY annoying habit of lorry drivers and they ALL seem to do it.
The A1(M) is pretty much two lanes for most of the way. As per usual lorry drivers tend to drive in the slow lane (left lane), at no more than about 60mph. Nothing strange there.
However, every 5-10 minutes one always decides to move into the right lane to overtake the lorry in front of it, BUT the driver does this at only about 1mph more than the lorry he is overtaking, taking what feels like hours to pass the lorry he is overtaking, holding up me and everyone else in the process.
And just to rub salt in the wound the driver then moves back into the slow lane, about 5 meters in front of the lorry he has just taken a life time to overtake... only to drive at exactly the same speed as it.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOO ANNOYING, and IMO POINTLESS!!
And they ALL seem to do it!
As sad as it might sound, I have even checked the time at the point one of them moved out to overtake, and four minutes later he still hadn't totally made it past the other lorry and moved back into the slow lane!!!
P***es me right off!!
