Pissing rain on the M62
...I mean proper can't see shit rain. Sensible little me driving along carefully in the left hand lane, or "slow lane" as some twats think it's called. White van driver in the "fast lane" (twat-speak) thinks he's better than the weather and speeds past at probably about 70.

A few minutes later and a few miles further what's that stopped still in the third lane - it's the white van and it's facing the wrong way.

Fuck knows how but there were no other vehicles involved and quite unfortunately the driver wasn't injured.

generally speaking the traffic in the right hand lane is going faster than that in the left hand lane
if not, the motorway is not functioning correctly. As this is the case I put it to you that it is perfectly alright to refer to them as the fast lane and the slow lane.

more importantly though, why does my spellcheck think that alright is wrong?

Alright
Technically speaking, I think "alright" doesn't exist as a real word and should be "all right".

We all use it as a work though so I think it's only a matter of time.

it's odd though
never seen spellcheck not like it before.

He'll have aquaplaned and spun.
Not entirely his fault though. If the motorway road surfaces were better you wouldn't get so much standing water.

this is true
they are fucking awful these days. used to be fine driving along at normal motorway speeds, but go past a truck these days and you are blind for a few seconds while it sprays you with shitloads of water
