You tend to find that the middle lane hoggers are totally oblivious to what is going on around them. I hate having to undertake but find that I have had to do it on the M65 several times where the carriageway is only 2 lanes and some dopey ****** is hogging the outside lane. We are a nation of bad drivers but not as bad as some other nations. Don't get me started on the Turkish....

Undertaking is perfectly acceptable in NZ and has to be done, sometimes due to the road layout (around Auckland some of the M-way exits to the city actually come off the right hand lane). I do think that the undertaking has become acceptable there because they are also a nation of bad drivers.
