Lane discipline seems to be getting worse in Ireland. It's now regular to see slow moving traffic in the outer lanes. What do we do? Everyone tails along behind the offender, at anything down to 60 kph in a 100kph zone, or undertake?
Has anyone ever seen someone being pulled over by the Gardai for "failing to make reasonable progress" while driving in the outer lane(s), or better still, anyone heard of someone being prosecuted for it?
These are spped limits as in dont go above them, doesnt mean you have to drive at those speeds

I never understood why the RSA do not run a series of TV adds to instruct road users on the correct use of lanes, roundabouts, pedestrian crossing etc.?

They do.
They do. Although the ads do not seem to be aired very often.
I've seen 'how to approach roundabouts/junctions' and 'how to overtake' I think.
They should use the Walkinstown Roundabout (or the Walkinstown Wheel of Fortune) to demonstrate the above - if you can manage that you can manage anything!
Walkinstown is bad yes but I think it has to be the Red (Mad!) Cow Roundabout for the truly most terrifying feeling of Russian Roulette!

Meh, I don't watch a lot of TV but I can't remember seeing anything in the last 10 years that didn't involve ambulance drivers scraping 16 year old faces off the windscreen of a car. Those type of adds just make most people switch channel IMO.
