I passed on LGV driver reading a paperback at the wheel on the M40 about three years ago. It was easy to spot that something was amiss as he was in and out of the hard shoulder.
I saw a car driver doing the same thing on the M25 this week. Again in and out of the hard shoulder, and doing about 50-60mph.
I caught a little of one of the police shows on TV the other night, and they were trying to get past a number of vehicles in lane 3, lights and sirens on. As the incar footage clearly showed the reg marks, I'm really surprised that warning letters (as a minimum) weren't sent out about driving without due care and attention.
