Not illegal but it should be.
Agree
I`ll try & find one of my bike cam vids, it took me the best part of 5 miles to weave thru traffic on the M27 to get to the head of a rolling road block caused by 2 professional drivers.
Nether of them willing to give way to the other
Re read that post and ask yourself what makes you so special...
(Whilst you're at it, consider that both drivers may not be as au fait with the nuances of our Highway Code as British drivers... ((78Bex lives about 20 minutes from Portsmouth Harbour, so a significant percentage of the trucks heading to/from are foreign)) ).
Last time I drove along it, the M27 is at least three lanes along its entire length (except the M3 and M275 junctions) and currently has a 50mph limit from Fareham to the M3. So on that stretch two trucks side by side are irrelevant.
Driving isn't a race, but rather a means of getting from point A to point B. And whilst you live in a highly populated area, I would politely suggest that slow journeys are the result of traffic volume and not trucks. It is theoretically possible for me to get from my house in rural Sussex to the heart of the New Forest (including the entire length of the M27
) in 45 minutes, an hour and a quarter is a realistic clear run and a poorly timed reality of traffic and road works can see nearly 2 hours. It is what it is.
