It's a 3-lane traffic jam with mopedists laning between both lanes -- sometimes carry 20mph over traffic, although most maintain a steady flow -- one thing I've noticed is how within the laners there are impatient tailgaters and a whole microcosm of traffic.
I'll accommodate all other road users as much as I can without impeding my progress. I tuck over if I'm in lane 1 or 3 -- although not in the area where I know there to be big drain covers.

Can you discourage someone on two wheels?

No idea what the nearside ones are like.

Just to clarify: if you position yourself in lane 3 of a motorway and drive at 70, because that's the legal limit and you're going to stop other drivers exceeding the limit, isn't that 'causing an obstruction'?
What sort of danger do you have in mind?
