A driver rooted to the middle lane of the M62 has been reported by Merseyside Police. They now face the prospect of receiving a fine, points on their driving license - and potentially a driving ban.
The motorist's Kia Sportage was driving in the lane at a speed of between 55 and 60 miles-per-hour; significantly slower than the 70 motorway limit. Other drivers found themselves having to maneuver around the slower-moving vehicle.
An officer attempted to prompt the driver to move over to lane one, with no response - and this led to their being reported.
