lol i've let the monster out....you two..get a room ; ) or start a new thread hehe just remember that what you see as great judgement and driving...others may see as manic and suicidial/homicidal! "Andy Hewitt" wrote in message t... SteveH wrote: Snipped Text Well, my car will do 130mph, but it leans the wrong way in the bends ;-) Well, I'm not going to get into talking about your cars ;-) I haven't tried to filter in the car yet, but I do find myself overtaking where most other car drivers haven't spotted the opportunity - it's all to do with the road positioning, something you get very good at when you ride a bike. I have filtered the car, quite successfully too, although I did get a lot of hoots from the other drivers ;-) Nice. I am tempted to try using the 'bike lane' on the A465 to Hereford, but that would rely on the person I'm overtaking and the one coming the other way making a gap for me. I did mine on the A5 from Redbourn to St. Albans. I just plain forgot I was in the car, rammed it down a gear, stuck my foot down, and just went for it. Luckily the road is quite wide there. I'm not convinced the yokels up there would do that ;-) Up here all the yokels drive 38 tonners. -- Andy Hewitt ** FAF#1, (Ex-OSOS#5) - FJ1200 ABS Honda Concerto 16v: Windows free zone (Mac G5 Dual Processor) http://www.thehewitts.plus.com - now online |

Please point to the law / section of the Highway Code that outlaws 'undertaking'. http://www.highwaycode.gov.uk/23.shtml#227 Do not overtake unless you are sure it is safe to do so. ... The Highway Code doesn't "outlaw" anything - it indicates the law's requirements with "YOU MUST" or "YOU MUST NOT" in red. The Highway Code's own rules are written in normal text. Safety should be your primary consideration. Suppose you are trundling along at 70 in lane 1 with nothing ahead of you for some distance and you catch up with a clod doing 65 for mile after mile, there's a stream of traffic doing 85 nose to tail in lane 3 and the hard shoulder is clear. It may be a lot safer to overtake on the left than to move over two lanes, overtake and then get back into lane 1. If it all goes pearshaped then it's down to you for infringing the Highway Code but it's not illegal. Of course the clod is also infringing the HC for not driving in the left hand lane (rule 238). -- Richard Porter Mail to username ricp at domain minijem.plus.com "You can't have Windows without pains." |

Indeed, I even have a text macro set up for Snipped Text. However, with the number of cross posted groups in this thread it'd be impossible to cater for each group's protocol. -- Andy Hewitt ** FAF#1, (Ex-OSOS#5) - FJ1200 ABS Honda Concerto 16v: Windows free zone (Mac G5 Dual Processor) http://www.thehewitts.plus.com - now online |
