Watch Two Idiot Drivers Block Half A Motorway For No Damn Reason
It’s really, really hard to watch this video and resit the urge to repeatedly bang your head against the nearest table. Filmed via a dashcam on the M62 motorway near Huddersfield, UK, the footage shows the camera car approaching traffic, which he begins to slowly pass on the clearer outside lane.
At the 21 second mark, a Kia Sedona driver pulls out to block the outside lane, taking it upon himself to enforce a lane closure displayed on an earlier gantry sign. But here’s the thing: the lane had already re-opened, which was shown by the following gantry showing ‘40’ on each lane and no red crosses - something Mr Sedona clearly missed.
Even if there was a lane closure, the uploader would still be in the right, as the Highway Code actually encourages merging in turn under such circumstances (rule 134, if you’re bored and want to look it up), so long as it’s at lower speeds.
The camera car driver and even drivers behind him are seen getting out and pleading with our misinformed Kia driver to let them past, to no avail. Then, just to ramp up the frustration level further, a Ford Kuga driver later decides to team up with our misinformed Kia man, blocking the next lane over to the left too. And for what looks like a significant period of time - we can’t even begin to imagine the length of the tailback this moronic pair caused.
At the 5min 20sec mark the Sedona-driving douchebag finally gives in, having seen that the next gantry was displaying all four lanes as open. He moves over, letting dozens of frustrated motorists past.
The stupid is very, very strong with this one.

Security car.
Any way this can be forwarded to local police? This is deliberate obstruction of traffic and doing something they are not qualified to do.
I would kick his ass out of the car and drive the car to the next parking spot, then take the key and drive away with my car so he istnt aible to hold back the traffic again.
The Stig’s German Cousin should i doit something like this
I have this exact same tactics before. Never let the person on the right lane to merge into my lane. I just keep the speed the same as the car beside me, basically blocking others to pass. It was the best thing ever! XD
WHAT DO I HEAR? WHOOP WHOOP IT IS THE SOUND OF THE POLICE
How did these people get their license?
What a couple of bum nuggets.
“It’s really hard to watch this video and resit the urge to repeatedly bang your head against the nearest table.”
My head? Nah. The Kia drivers head.
Nearest table? More like, the nearest concrete wall.
I hate these type of people. I would’ve had to censor the in-car audio aswell.
I can’t imagine how many of us would have simply rammed them off the road if we were driving Clarkson’s Ambulance
