An impatient driver from the north of England attempted to push their way in on a motorway after riding on the hard shoulder yesterday (February 5), after an incident was reported ahead.<br /><br />Motorists on the M6 near Preston banded together after a driver seemed oblivious to the highway code and used the hard shoulder to cruise their way past traffic.<br /><br />With the help of drivers in the left-hand lane, the minivan driver manages to thwart the Chevrolet attempting to cut ahead of traffic using the hard shoulder.<br /><br />The brazen motorist is left stuck on the emergency lane, unable to rejoin traffic and suffering from a well-deserved dose of karma. <br /><br />The filmer explained: "There had been a bump on the M6 near Preston and a van and car couldn't be bothered waiting in the queue so they tried to pass on the inside."<br /><br />He later added: "The BMW in front of me also moved over to stop the car passing and all three vehicles behind bunched up to stop him getting back in. <br /><br />"Haters gonna hate, but I hate people pushing in and I moved over as soon as the yellow flashing lights came."<br /><br />With a reasonable justification for the manoeuvre, the driver received mixed criticism on social media.<br /><br />One Facebook user commented: "Two wrongs don't make a right you blocked him + [sic] you was [sic] driving in the hard shoulder too you can get into trouble too for that"<br /><br />Another exclaimed: "This makes me proud to be British [sic]"
