Not far from Woodhall services and we’re doing about 48 in a 50….except someone was in a rush. That extra 2mph must’ve made a hell of a difference

Dear car drivers, if you can’t decide whether to do 30mph or 45mph through the 50mph roadworks on the M1 south…either f #ck off into lane 1 (so the rest of us can get on with our day) or exit the motorway. You’re a mobile hazard.

What is it with car drivers on a clear motorway who cannot maintain a speed? The amount I’ve passed today who seem to think it’s perfectly normal to zigzag between 40 & 70 mph is unbelievable.

Dear car drivers…what part of your brain thinks it’s perfectly acceptable to pull in front of a truck doing 55mph in lane 1 on the motorway and jump on the brakes? F #ck off!! Next time one of you c #nts does that then I’ll not hit the brakes and I’ll spin you the f #ck around. 😡

@cwsuth1 @Joey_Bagadohnut Sometimes it does happen that I’ll move lanes to pass…but pretty quickly realising I don’t have the legs to get past so I’ll drop back behind very quickly. Also if I’m being overtaken I drop my speed by a couple of clicks

Dear car drivers…do you remember being taught: Mirror (check surroundings) Signal (to let others know your intentions) and Manoeuvre (when safe to do so)?? This morning I’ve seen a few who must’ve been taught Signal (by accident) and Manoeuvre (f #ck it…you can slow down for me)
