Cobblers, I flash middle-lane hogs not out of aggression, but to indicate to them that I am present in the vain hope that these mindless, robotic, self-bloody-righteous morons will actually realise they're in the wrong place.londonTiger wrote: »Given that the people have admitted to doing this to middle lane hoggers just proves they're doing it out of aggression.
Yes you do, you could wait patiently for them to move to the left. Flashing at them only gives the impression that you're in an Audi, which they will soon see is false when you overtake them.It would be understandable if they were doing it to a slow moving vehicle in lane 3 as you have no other choice but to flash.0 -

So you agree flashing them is for nothing more than self satisfaction rather than a legitimate purpose..
If your gonna flash them then fine, but let's not disguise that as something it's not0 -

Given that the people have admitted to doing this to middle lane hoggers just proves they're doing it out of aggression. because you can simply move to lane 3 and overtake. It would be understandable if they were doing it to a slow moving vehicle in lane 3 as you have no other choice but to flash.
Ironic how people are judging me for my driving and the same people are admitting to aggressive road behaviour and stretching a few rules to justify it.
flashing midle lane hoggers from behind is never ever helpful or useful. it's purely to display aggression to the driver in front.
Not if your'e driving a coach, you can't.PLEASE NOTEMy advice should be used as guidance only. You should always obtain face to face professional advice before taking any action.0 -

Yes mate. Middle lane hoggers are a menace to coach drivers and yes I do let them know I am there.
EDIT: Even if I didn't drive a coach, it dosn't alter the fact that you can't "simply over take using lane 3" in one. So pointless question really.PLEASE NOTEMy advice should be used as guidance only. You should always obtain face to face professional advice before taking any action.0 -

Not strictly true. They dont even know what lane to be in. You give them far too much credit.0 -
