How likely is that? Not likely at all
why was you banned?
I did the training so that I am more aware of what's going on, and trust me, I am. I'm not saying I'm perfect because I'm not, no one is!
All the clues to a possible hazard or accident are there every time, most people just dont see them.
I'm also current training for Special Assessment - police class 1 without speeding. This being the highest civilian driving qualification in the country.

Congratulations. I'd still rather just drive at the speed I want to and take my chances. I race Mascar so I like overtaking people

what you come up to a junction and there's cars merging and the middle lane is empty?! Highly doubt it. For a start there'll be drivers moving in to it to let the traffic merge. The middle lane will not be empty
but your also risking us while you take your chances

I have driven on motorways at night, I don't tend to drive as fast at night though. I like to sleep when It's dark.
Drink driving, caught on my way home from a festival the day after 5 nights before and was still over the limit. Felt fine but was a bit stupid.
you said you drive fast to stay awake.
my speed increases at night, generally middle lane it till i see lights in the background

Why do you middle lane it? What's wrong with being in the correct lane?
Sleeping was a joke. I could think of nothing more stupid than driving when not alert. Some of my driving attitudes maybe be slightly wrong and aggressive but I can say I'm always alert and aware of my surroundings and spotting hazards. more than you can say for Joe average cruising in the middle lane at below the speed limit. I know which one I'd rather be.

LOL! That is brilliant, I'm sorry but you've just lost every chance of me ever agreeing with you. Someone who drink drives giving advice? LMFAO!
Although this thread has cheered me up tonight immensely and made me laugh no end, I really need to get some sleep so I'll reply in the morning.
Night guys.

I don't drink drive for a start. I was still over the limit. I hadn't drunk for about 8 hours. Obviously not enough which I prob knew deep down but it wasn't like I was pissed. ****** police spotting cars coming from the festival, bit of mud on the car, pulled.
why not? only thing on road is me.
come up to the occasional hgv, see more of the road with my light beam.
more room to maneuver if something did go wrong.
as said when lights appear behind i will take appropriate action
only thing what annoys me is people using high beams
