Middle lane

“You know, you know what really gets me? You know; middle lane. You know what the middle lane’s for? Right, there’s 3 lanes on a motorway. Right, you’ve got lane 1: that’s by the hard shoulder, that’s for driving in. You’ve got lane 2: that’s for overtaking the people who are driving in lane 1. And then lane 3 is for overtaking the people who are in lanes 2 and 1.
D’you know what they do? They sit there don’t they in the middle lane. They sit there like muppets not looking in the mirror; they don’t look in the back mirror, they don’t look in the side mirrors, they just sit there, 3 feet from the windscreen in a world of their own. They have no idea what’s coming up behind them, they don’t know what’s coming up in front of them, they’re just listening to the Carpenters, loud, loud, loud on CD.
They should be shot.”
