The driver of the pickup has no doubt done that same manoeuvre many times and got away with it, but eventually your luck runs out - there’s a reason why the Highway Code says don’t “overtake” on the inside!!Nereus wrote: ↑Wed Apr 12, 2023 3:52 pm How not to overtake a truck:

The driver fell asleep! The car flows into the canal beside the road. 27 pigs drowned, the rest cried.

Re: Minivan, bus and road accidents
Saw a fair few accidents driving back and forward to Bangkok last week, most of them caused by dangerous u-turns and slow vehicles hogging the fast lane by the looks of things - no idea why Thais have to sit in this outside lane regardless of what they're driving and at what speed.

Re: Minivan, bus and road accidents
Same old question, "Where were the police?" Much of the road to Bangkok now has a minimum speed limit, but nobody to enforce it.

Re: Minivan, bus and road accidents
Yes the slow outside lane huggers encourage the speeders to lane weave with the inevitable consequences. A set of highway patrol cars could quite quickly bring about a change in driving habits but for whatever reason, nobody has the appetite to do it, so carnage will remain!!
Re: Minivan, bus and road accidents
I have come up with the idea of renaming the inside lane the VIP lane! You would never get the buggers out of it then!
