Multiple drivers stopped and dealt with for lane hogging this morning, including the driver of this Citroen, who got himself all confused in his explanation, over fast/slow lanes (which don’t exist) If you’re not overtaking, move left. #Team3RCT #SaferLanes

This middle lane hogger on the M62 didn’t wish to move to lane 1 when encouraged to do so, nor did the driver wish to stop on the hard shoulder when the blue lights came on - instead he stops in live lane 3. Utterly ridiculous. Driver reported #MRPU #SYN1

This post shows perfectly how selfish people are. Stop this planet I want to get off.
1/ We’re currently dealing with concerns for the welfare of a man on the Dartford River Crossing. The incident was reported to us shortly after 6am this AM. Traffic is being held on the crossing as we work to bring the situation to a safe conclusion.

Hi everyone, I’m afraid I bear some sad news. Most of you will know Dave has been fighting cancer for the past couple of years. Last night, on 28th February 2024, with Lili, Dave’s wife, his family, close friend DavidΒ and myself by his side, he passed away peacefully at home. All who knew Dave are devastated at his passing. His beloved wife brought him such happiness as did her children, Iza and Sergiu who Dave loved like his own. Personally, I am not sure I can put into words on how I feel at the moment. My best friend is on a journey that for now, I can’t follow. I will miss him every day and the bond and friendship we shared over half a lifetime. I wish you god’s speed brother; you are and will remain a beacon in this world. See you on the other side. Love ya. I know Dave and his family would want me to thank all of you who sent messages of support in recent times. It meant the world to him, his family and all The Hairy Bikers team. I am sending you all much love and gratitude for those simple acts of kindness, generosity and spirit. We are eternally grateful for them. May I ask you all for one further kindness and allow Lili, his wife, his family, close friends and I some time and some peace to process our huge loss. I am sure I will see you all soon. Love Si x

Another tragic incident on the hard shoulder. To the people out there that think hard shoulders are β€˜safe’ need to look at this and all of the other incidents on the hard shoulder where people have sadly lost their lives.
We are appealing for witnesses following a fatal #collision on the #M27 yesterday afternoon (Fri 5 January). More: orlo.uk/GXP3m

On my way home from work this morning there was someone sat in the outside lane holding everyone up. They would match speed of the car next to them and would then floor it when there was a gap to move over only to slow again when getting to another car. Why do people do this?! 😑

Driver seen travelling unnecessarily in lane 4 of the M25 between J11 and 10, resulting in others getting confused about how to pass the 'lane hogger'. Stopped by #VanguardRST and #SPCasualtyReduction officers where a TOR was issued. #KeepLeft

Just had a run in with two drivers who tried to force their way in at the front of a queue coming off at a junction with a dedicated slip lane. Both cars were Mercedes πŸ™„πŸ€‘

Red X’s are put on for a reason. The amount of drivers that have been ignoring them today and driving right up to where the cones start is absolutely unacceptable 😑

This is an urgent appeal to all black cab drivers. A man has left an urn containing his child’s ashes in a black Adidas bag in a cab he took from Fenchurch Street to Smithfield Meat Market at 6.30am. Anyone with any information please contact 020 7601 2222

I think I’ve lost the will to live with peoples driving. On the way home last night I observed a driving instructor in their marked instructor car come from lane 1 into lane 2, then lane 2 into lane 3 for no apparent reason. I dread to think what they teach their students. 😑

We have received our new BMW 530 which has been dedicated to PC1158 Alex Prentice, who suddenly passed away while on duty last year. The aerial identification is his collar number, which has also been stitched into the seat covers. Lovely work @TheresaCheney7 & her team

Complete ignorance shown here to someone that is so anti smart motorway they commit a driving offence. I’m sure they are fine with driving on A roads and country roads with a higher death rate though! πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈπŸ™„
Replying to @PVGJames
I totally agree, unless it's a 'smart' motorway without a hard shoulder... in which case I will immediately move over into lane 3. These are deathtraps, with lanes 1 and 2 being unacceptably lethal.

Had a job today where a car broke down on the bullnose chevrons where an entry slip joined the main carriageway. Driver decided that wasn’t safe enough and pulled their car into the live lane on the slip road πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈπŸ™„
