firstly no i haven't been done :rollin
i was coming out of Laaaaaahndan t'other day and the usual crawl of 20-30-40 to hammersmith, then M25 and bikes were buzzing around, then we get onto the open m'way and traffic is flowing nicely and still bikes are filtering at 80+.
the thing is, at low speeds i can see bikes weaving along and make some space because my stopping distances are pretty similar to cars, however once i'm doing 62, i spend less time looking in the mirrors as i need 2/3x the stopping distance, so if you come flying past me in a coach/delivery van sandwich don't complain if you get squeezed.
would just like to say that i didn't see any fazers doing this, mainly ducatis and triumphs!!

The problem with socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other people's money!
