Surely this is a stupid thing to do?

Driving along a dual carriageway today and the person infront of me slammed on their brakes when going past a hearse. I'm all for being respectful but surely it's incredibly stupid to do when were travelling at 70+mph in the outside lane.

What would you do in this situation? Based on his driving 10 minutes after that I'm fairly certain he was trying to get me to go into the back of him for £££.

The point of the thread was asking if you'd slam your brakes on for a hearse on a dual carriageway. I don't think it's acceptable when it's at that speed, which was the point of the thread.

He only braked when he was level with the limo behind the hearse. I'm not complaining about the braking, I understand why he halfed his speed, I'm wondering if other people would do the same thing as it's s dual carriageway.

Doesn't matter though because you're all clearly perfect drivers

Yes, you are correct, hogging the outside lane is a stupid thing to do.....

I could upload the whole 3 minute clip if you want and are you telling me you would sit in the left lane at 40mph for the tractor?

Cheers for the feedback guys, I'm going to buy a 530d, ditch the dashcam and fly past hearses from now on
