| Police are going to be giving 3 points and fines to those ignorant,selfish people who hog the middle lane on motorways! They are far more dangerous than someone that strays slightly over the speed limit.Shame they don t give them instance bans for their stupidity. |

Not sure fines and points are the way to go but certainly something needs to be done to get the motorways sorted out and getting people driving properly.
Incidentally, I read that they are considering putting the basic fine up from £60 to £90. ------------- Who is General Failure and why's he reading my hard disk? |

| Points are definitely a good idea. Idiot drivers should be removed from our streets and giving them points is one way to do it |

In the long term, I agree, but like driving with a mobile, at first it would be good to educate/remind people of the rules. Punish them later if they don't learn. I seriously think a lot of people simply don't know how to use lanes properly in this country. (Not helped by the fact that they probably didn't have any learning experience on a motorway!) ------------- Who is General Failure and why's he reading my hard disk? |
