The sooner they put hgv only lanes in roadworks the better, then we can all carry on at 50 and let cars dither along at 30 or whatever

That wont ever happen lol
What they should put up is signs saying keep to the speed limit dont â â â â about and get moving or something along those lines
looking at the picture the stobarts truck is in the right lane[isnt the stobarts truck the back one of the three trucks together]its the tesco truck thats in the wrong lane

Trouble is that using the lane isnât actually an offence, the offence if the Police choose to do you for it would be driving without due care, there is no contravening a width limit offence that i am aware of, normally because you cant contravine it as your vehicle is too big
I think you might be wrongâŚ
TS50 Failing to comply with traffic sign (excluding - stop -signs, traffic lights or double white lines) 3 points

Looks like the rear of a Tesco wagon, out in the 6â6" width restricted lane, to me.
I donât get why so many car drivers go through these 50 limits at 30 - 40 though, 45 or so is fair enough.
Car speedoâs are set to read slightly high, and you donât want to get done for speeding so you keep it 1 or 2 below the limit to be on the safe side, I can understand that and put up with it fairly happily 
, but over 10 mph below the limit 
Regular occurance on that stretch on nightshift browser there`s quite a few 6ft 6 wide trucks about 
Itâs just the British attitude to getting further than you! It doesnât happen at roadworks in France etcâŚWe just donât care, thatâs the problem. 
it always amazes me that the fastest travelling vehicles in roadworks are trucks. it is frustrating sitting behind cars doing 30-40 when signs prohibit you from moving into the second lane to overtake them.
thats why we ignore the signs. went through Hatfield tunnel today, 22mphâ â ? yes I went in the 2nd lane

Dont blame ya mate i would of done aswellâŚ
I count myself lucky that I donât have to use the motorway that often, and the only bit I have to suffer the roadworks in is the lafarge/costain barrier installation between j15-14 of the m4.
