POLICE have released a video of a van driver who was hogging a lane on the M4 for more than a mile, as a reminder to drivers.
Dashcam footage captured by Thames Valley Police and posted on TVP Roads Policing shows the driver staying in the third lane even though the police car had the siren and emergency lights were on.
