Members of CLARA (Central Lane Residents Association) who insist on their god-given right to hog the middle lane on motorways for their entire journey regardless of traffic conditions are to be targeted by police... and about time too. Motorway middle-lane hoggers to face on-the-spot fines Motorway tailgaters and middle-lane hoggers are to face quick justice with on-the-spot penalties under new measures announced by the government. From July, police will be able to issue £100 fines and three points for careless driving offences that would currently have to go to court. The idea is to target offenders without the need for lengthy court procedures. Current fixed penalties for using a phone while driving or not wearing a seatbelt will also rise by £40 to £100. The move brings careless driving offences into line with the penalties for similar non-motoring fixed penalties. Drivers will still be able to appeal against any decision through the courts. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-22770064
