| It's along time since I read the highway code :o but is there not something in there about allowing overtaking on the left in dense traffic. Anyway, if we have three lanes going between 60 and 70 then this is actually a perfectly reasonable situation and the road is actually being used in a very eff... |

| I've never been called terse before. In my experience lane discipline has worsened beacause a high proportion of vehicles are now tending to drive at more or less the the same speed, say between 60 and 70 mph. Cars are alongside each other for longer and drivers seem to be becoming blind to whats a... |

| Lane discipline is a major problem on uk roads and one that is simply not tackled. It is being made worse by the speed kills mantra!

| However, quite probably the greatest omission from this page is the fact that in the time span quoted the number of speed cameras on German roads has increased incredibly, far more so than in the UK. Really? Evidence for that? Do speed cameras in Germany contribute to licence suspension? Can we con... |

| This page comparing German and UK road safety must be one of worst examples of junk science that i've ever read. Lies damned lies and statistics. I refer you to the point made above about A and D grades. There's also the fact that 1993 around the time of Wende thus making this kind of comparison inc... |
