lorries

I don't mind lorries using any lane on motorways, it's easier to give them an all round view if I'm flashing at them 
What I do hate is middle lane hoggers. Maybe they could be forced to move to the inside lane too

I have no problem with lorries using any lane of the M-way. The thing to remember is that when you overtake any HGV that you should leave them plenty of room before you pull back in. An HGV has a much larger breaking distance than a car. You cutting right in front of them means they have to pull back to a safe distance. That's what slows them down! I hate it when I leave a decent gap and then some other arsehole thinks he can just drop into it. 
It's times like that I wish I had the balls to slam the breaks on and let them see how quick a truck can get very big in the rear view mirror :twisted:

Lol, people have no idea on stopping distances, as my instructor said:
Join junction 3 heading upwards... leave a gap, some bugger pulls into it, drop back, another bugger pulls into it... repeat a few more times and end up leaving at junction 2...
Nearside lane, can't see why, they already can't use the outside lane so I have no problem with them being in the first two. However in rush hour on certain stretches they do become mobile road blocks, overtaking each other at 1 mile per hour while doing 55... Hmm talked myself into it, if it were timed, and specific locations yes I could see it helping the flow.

They use that lane any way, do you mean restricting them to only that lane?
Whilst it seems like a good idea at the time......
People have got to remember that if we do this it will make the lorries go slower therefore making the lorry driver's trip longer which will make deliveries later which will use more fuel up and in the end we will have to pay for it.
Well thats what i think anyway.

And with the inside lane (or lane 1) full with lorries - and you need to get off at the next exit............ you wanna try and squeeeeeeeze in between a solid lane of 40 tonne 40 footers???

Quote by Santino
what is your oppinion of the idear of making lorries use the inside lane on some stretches of motorway!!!
Not wishing to be controversial but....
Damm lorries shouldn't be on the roads in the first place.
They should be on the railways.
- Except for the small local delivery vehicles.Great shame that Dr Beeching (
) got his way. ...Yes for those of us that were too young, all right whos he?Well he was this b.. :censored: .... in the 60's who thought to save money it would be a good idea to close all the branch lines and some of the main lines.
Thats why the transport system is in such a mess now!

no sorry that wasnt a joke take a look from a motorcyclists side or a lorry drivers view a lot of car drivers treat there cars like a conservatoy music ,heat,comfort,where as bikers and truck drivers have to be alert and watch for the pepole in there 4 wheeled conservatory.i know ive been snotted by a car .

master 55 hit the nail right on its head beaching is the cause of our traffic problems today .the closer of the branch lines in the 60's and the later goverments selling the land off for housing .the then population boom has all resulted in more lorries and cars on the roads and less trains to cope with the passengers who are now fed up with the roads
there is no quick fix to the overall problem it's been building up for years and will take years to go away . me personally i dont think more roads is the option more trains and more old railway lines reopening is the solution

Trains are simply not an efficient and cost effective way of moving things. They are always either overcrowded or half empty, one breakdown takes out a whole line because they can't go round each other, and it's usually cheaper to fly somewhere rather than take a train there!
If we wanted to do something to improve transport and relieve congestion, concreting over the railway lines and letting us drive on them would be good start.

trains may not always be ideal for passengers but they are bloody good for bulk freight. The current argument that freight needs roads because there are no rail lines is a backwards one - if rail hadn't been left to rot, we wouldn't have distribution warehouses next to motorways, they'd be next to rail lines.
And passenger trains work well in metropolitan areas Manchester Metrolink is a good example - wish the lines near me hadn't been concreted over for cars - it would have made my commuting MUCH easier.
They're also quicker than planes for city centre to city centre journeys....

Well put Cueball. Lorries on motorways are not actually much of a problem. It is ANY vehicle that hogs the middle (or outside) lane, & the worst offenders are usually car drivers. Many people just don't seem to be capable of using the nearside lane, just as they cannot possibly turn their fog lights off :shock: :shock: :shock:
Rant over! :shock:

Don't know about lorries but that bus lane in the fast lane near Heathrow is utterly ridiculous!
