with nick. People paying more attention to their speedo's than the road in Gatso zones is also a huge danger!

Germans drive properly, for fear of admonishment from other road users, or the police.
Walking around Hamburg I always forget and stroll along pathways and often wander into the cycle paths.
Jesus Christ, the cyclists go ape shit - every single one if you put a foot wrong.
And as you say its the same on the highway.
About time we started harassing 'middle lane losers'

Until we do something about the standard of driving in this country I don't see the point in increasing them.

bib maintain this creep along the outside lane for absolutely no good reason then pull over (without indication - more advanced driving I presume)
Bib were in an Audi A3 (4 door) travelling at 60mph in the outside lane and slow right down to a roundabout. No other cars are nearby. The go straight at the roundabout, but remain in the outside lane with nothing in the inside one....and slowly crawl to 60.
I close up behind them, wondering if I should just undertake.... no response to my closing in so I flashed them. Its dark, I have xenons...he noticed.
In response I get his blue rearward flashing lights to tell me to back off..... he then pulls into the inside lane, accelerates to 68 so I have no option but to sit behind him.
Awkward cock.....

If only. Even less likely if they are driving a shed.
your statement
"Police cannot convict anyone for "shit driving" so will always go for the person speeding"
is factually incorrect

Ok, my opinion of shit driving may not be dwdcaa to the police. I refer to middle lane sitting, fog lights on with no fog (never seen anyone pulled for it and is a common sight), lack of indication and cutting lanes at roundabouts.
Would the biffer you referred to earlier really get done for no due care?
