Well I sincerely hope that all these motorway experts around 'ere will teach their pupils the golden rules of motorway driving, thus: (1) If nervous, just drive at 50 in the inside lane (as suggested above) - the lorry drivers won't mind at all, I promise, in fact they'll be only too pleased to protect you from all the other, more dangerous, road-users by hovering eight inches from your back bumper!! (2) When you're more confident, just drive at any speed you like but always in the middle lane, as it's very bad form to take the risk of being "boxed in!" (3) Forget all that mirror stuff - there's probably nothing behind you anyway, and, even if there is, it's their fault if anything happens because they must have been too close! (4) Signalling is for wusses - it's much safer not to, as the resulting element of unpredictability will keep all the other drivers on their toes, making it safer for everyone! (5) But if you really must signal, turn your radio up full blast, then you won't hear that pesky click-clicking noise that your right-hand indicator makes all the way, non-stop, from Cribbs Causeway to the M62 turn-off!
