People who can't stay in their lanes

If I can move to the front of a queue of stopped traffic safely I will do so because while I am out in front of everyone, I am being seen and noticed, not being caught up in a blind spot just waiting to be knocked off, merged in on or used for traction by car drivers who fail to check mirrors or do headchecks and indicate.

And lets face it, 99 times out of 100 you aren't going to be held up by a bike that lane filters, so it affects you in no way what so ever. I am sorry that in this one instance, you were held up for 5 or 6 seconds though. No wonder you blasted him with your horn!

I don't really care if motor bikes go up the middle. But the fact this guy came flying up the middle flat out then took off slow it seamed as he was doing it to be a smart ***.

Plus since he took off so slow all the cars on the left past him so the self preservation excuse can't be used either
