I try to keep a safe distance, but it seems as if I move 1 foot out of that zone, someone who is in a hurry to get to a red light. I mean what is that point it is RED, there is no prize for getting there first! I really relate to your reference to the gap between the cars.

Felt like I was right there beside you, holding on for dear life. And the description of "their fake-tan orange faces, dimly lit by the glow from the Blackberry Pearl or Borg-like hands-free earpieces" - truly brilliant.

A gnat's tadger. I've got to work that phrase into my everyday lexicon. Here in Lake Tahoe, we call the slow, out of town drivers Gapers, as in, their mouth agape, wistfully expounding "Look at that lake, it's sooo beautiful" while trying to stay in their lane and maintain forward motion. I guess we all have our cross to bear eh, Middleman? Vlogonaut here. A gnat’s tadger. I’ve got to work that phrase into my everyday lexicon.

But you're right about the M6 - its everything that motorways shouldn't be.
