Haha good, fear enough not being in a hurry but if that was the case why not pull over and have a drink while watching all the backed up cars go past :roll:

agreed fair enough!. surely she noticed all the cars behind her or doesnt she know how to check her mirrors? Trucks see heaps of cars behind them they pull over when they can so why not her!. :lol:

We had lines of vehicles coming back ... 1/2 of them wouldn't pass when we pulled over to the side or got to a passing lane .... 1 idiot actually stopped in the middle of the lane (the 1st one behind us) when we pulled over ... so its not always the slowest vehicle

If the cops actually woke up & noticed slow drivers more they would make a fortune ...would help them get there quota much faster.

Finally some one else pulled over. Now if they could just get the slow people in the fast lane we would be right

yeah the ones that tailgate the crap out of you even up the passings lanes and refuse to overtake.......until the end of the passing lane where they will take on oncoming traffic!

someone mentioned trucks.........i've never seen a truck yet that has ever pulled off the road to let traffic past. in fact i wish they wouldn't drive on the shoulder (and half on the road) as that opens the door for all the idiots to overtake into oncoming traffic.

Same happened to one of my workmates driving at 65kph over the harbour bridge. Pulled over and fined for obstructing traffic. According to some other guys the traffic was doing close to 80kph or just over at the time and he was just backing traffic up behind him.
Good job cops!
