I like doing that
it's also funny when they aren't paying attention and you sneak up behind them and blow the horn.

way to cause a pile up there V!

to be honest
I've only ever done precisely what I described on that short stretch of motorway between the M5 north, and the M4 onto the Severn Bridge

and if some twat is driving in the middle lane and not paying attention, I feel it is my duty to wake them, and if they crash it's their fault not mine

I agree just don't think honking on the motorway is a good idea.
Flashing people (with your lights) is fine.

I don't think driving in an oblivious manner
on the fastest roads in the country is a good idea. If you're so stupid that you can't pay attention to what speed your doing and what lane you're in, you're unlikely to notice flashing lights in your mirror either.

I wonder if you actually believe all the things you write. Of course you're going to notice flashing lights in your mirror
regardless of how intelligent somebody is and regardless of what road.

If you aren't concentrating to the point that your speedo is a random blur and you have no idea that there is an empty gap in the lane next to you
then you aren't going to notice flashing lights. I'm not just conjecturing here, I have flashed my lights repeatedly at people, and when I finally give up and overtake they haven't even noticed me there, they are either hunched over the wheel or chatting to their friend.

edit - also I like to "write" things that are "right"

Or just ignoring the tosser in the car behind.
Cheers for that, 1-1 now eh.

I've been in situations where they haven't noticed
you do get some really oblivious drivers out there.

I've seen people oblivious to ambulances and police cars with sirens and lights flashing.

Honking?
Honky.

Why get upset with the internet Al?
Actually ignore that, carry on as you were.

That wasn't upset, that was resigned detachment.
I got upset when talking about other drivers.

Yeah I saw, sounds like you were 100% in the right and correct on all points as usual so kudos.

Or start from the inside lane
go all the way to the outside to overtake them, and pull straight back into the inside, making sure that you never get more than five feet from the front or back of their car during the move.

That usually fucking wakes them up.

It's particularly bad up here, a lot of people seem to think the middle lane IS the lane your supposed to be in.

that's a favourite manouevre of mine too
Devon isn't too bad for middle lane hogs really, and as soon as you enter the county everyone speeds up anyway, so it's less of a problem.

Nah, you were talking about looping
I don't bother with the "slowing in the inside lane bit"

I just pull off a perfectly legal, textbook slow-middle-fast lane overtake. I just cut very, very, very close to the front and back of their car while doing it to wake them up.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Wed 15 Sep 2010, 10:15, Reply)

I don't do that, risky innit
Cutting someone up is a cunt move in my book, so I prefer to loop.
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Wed 15 Sep 2010, 10:16, Reply)

Ah, each to their own.
But you aren't strictly cutting them up if you don't make them swerve out of the way. I merely have an in-depth knowledge of the exact length of my car ;)

I would loop, but it slows me down on my journey, daddio.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Wed 15 Sep 2010, 10:20, Reply)

Most I've managed in looping is 5 complete loops
After that I got bored.
