    This is my impression too. The number of times I have been held up by someone hogging the outside lane, or had to change lanes twice around someone hogging the middle, is very low compared to the number of times I’ve been held up by a lorry overtaking another lorry on a two-lane road (perfectly legal, happens at least a dozen times every trip on such roads) or been aggressively tailgated while I’m overtaking traffic (not legal, happens about once per such trip)

      Are you one of those people that creates a massive road hazard by trying to pass by driving a single mile per hour faster than the cars in the right lane?

        How does that create a “massive road hazard”?

        Are you one of those people that creates a massive road hazard by driving two car lengths behind the vehicle in front? Because unlike you I can explain in exactly what scenario that leads to a crash.
