On coming traffic flashing at you while overtaking
It seems over the weekend and this morning whenever I overtake someone the on coming traffic have to flash Their lights at me even though I'm back on my side of the road a good few seconds before we pass
If buses travelled the same speed as me I would gladly follow them everywhere taking full advantage of my reduced drag and greater fuel economy, but the don't so require to be overtaken. I just dont see the need to be flashed at. I can see you're coming towards me, but since I'm now level with the car I'm overtaking I'm hardly going to abort and brake hard... Rant over

Yeah, people who are responsible about road safety can be such dickheads.

Possibly try waiting until there isn't oncoming traffic!

On a similar subject why do many drivers ignore the 'USE BOTH LANES' sign on approch to roadworks?
 They jump into one lane as soon as signs warn of the upcoming bottleneck. The same drivers also ignore the instruction to 'MERGE IN TURN', in fact they often are obstructive of drivers trying to follow the instruction by driving very close to the car in front of them.  It's not hard and everyone gets there faster.

I will admit, if I know roadworks are coming up, I will merge in with time to spare, but the one who comes tearing up the outside and expect you to let them in.....

I like the subject on use both lanes.
Why do people feel the need to move over when there is still space in the lane? Why do people try and block you from using the lane? I'm not saying come speeding along, how about at a slow pace? Is this ok? Ok here's a situation, your at the supermarket, there is 2 till's open, 1 till with loads of people, 1 till with a few people, what till would you go to? Shall we all go to the till that has loads of people? Nope, so why should we all move to a lane where there's loads of people if there is still room in the other lane???

I wouldn't start to overtake if I could see them unless they were a long way away.

I love it when the car I've just overtaken flashes their lights at me once I've pulled back in! They're normally donig 40 in a 60 though.........
