A day from the diary of a BMW driver...

"The other day I was cruising along as usual coming onto one of my motorways, which was very busy with inferior cars.

First off, I couldn't believe that the volume of traffic DIDN'T slow down for me AT ALL as I came off the slip road! I had to squeeze into a barely big enough gap between two cars in order to get onto my motorway!

The driver of the car behind me did realise his mistake though and honked an apology to me with a long blast of his horn.

Unbelievably, I had to do the same again before I could get to the BMW lane.

Anyway, once I was in the BMW lane and posing along at 110 mph enjoying the adulation that the inferior car drivers were giving me, I noticed an inferior car ahead of me which was not only in the BMW lane of my motorway, but was driving at a ridiculous 70 mph!

Naturally, I got within a foot or so of his rear bumper and flashed my headlights to remind him he shouldn't be in the BMW lane of my motorway and to get out of my way.

Of course, once he realised it was a BMW behind him, he did just that, but I could hardly believe it when he pulled straight back out behind me!

He also tried to keep up with me and when he realised I would out-run him, he put on some blue lights in his front grill and urged me to get onto the hard shoulder so that he could congratulate me on my excellent car.

Needless to say, I was eager to oblige and when we had stopped, the man gave me a piece of paper confirming what I already knew - that my car goes fast!

Apparently he wants everyone to know what a superior car I have, so I had to take my drivers licence to a police station to be sent away to have some points put on! (They're not free points either - they're £20 each and I was only allowed 3.) But the man at the police station said that because I drive a BMW, it won't be much longer before I earn the full 12 points, and then I won't even NEED a driving licence, so they will take it off me!

See, now THAT'S the sort of respect you get when you own and drive a BMW! "

Sorry if its old, but it made me chuckle.

Yea this gets annoying tbh
 
Give over we all know you don't go over 65MPH :p

LOL @ OP.

That fast?! Get out of town :p

When I commuted 80 miles a day on the M6 there was a clear "BMW lane" some days. Especially in the wet. It could be howling down with rain and spray meant very poor visibility yet 100+ was no issue. It was more a case of Mercs, BMWs and similar class cars but BMW is more apt :p
 
LOL quite funny, I think I saw one these drivers in a 325 convertible on the A40 today when coming back home from Reading. :)
 
I'm glad some people do realise that they get into our lane and do indeed get in the way. I must admit to making this error before owning a BMW. I must apologise to other BMW drivers for having done this but will continue to assist other motorists who maybe unaware of the situation :)
