Exactly.
You should have been in the 'space'.

Wtf has that got to do with anything?
You were in here road, you should have got out of it.
Just because you were doing the speedlimit doesn't make it ok.
Its people like that that cause traffic jams and slow the motorway to a crawl.

not if there are cars in front of me, there is no point, thats just like saying everytime she sped up to another car in front of me, they should move over even if there was only a small space to pull into.

tbh imo ateotd you should have pulled over into the available space to your left, by law.
then let her do as she pleases and speed off.
then you should have just left it at that, and not bothered making a thread on CS and wasting time

Jesus Christ.
The law is that if there is a space, cars in front or not, you use it.
If you think 'there was no point' or not, IT'S THE LAW.

Yes, if the idiots that pottled along in the overtaking lane only used it for overtaking I would get home from work significantly quicker.
One of the worst types of drivers

If there was enough space for her to undertake, there was enough space for you to use

Get over it, you were obviously holding her up or she wouldn't have got irratated and undertaken you, maybe she was a nut jack, maybe she had a point to be irrated, either way its all gravy.

your corsa is approx 400cm, so would fit leaving enough room for 2.285 corsas infront of you
over two corsa sized car lengths in which to stop at 50mph
end of, pull over

TBH If i'm cruising down the fast lane doing 70mph for example, and there is a car in front of me that I catch up to, I will stay there until he gets out of the way, regardless of whether there is a car behind me or not.
Is that wrong?
