Driving Standards

[guest5355]

Hi Guys

It seems that I started something with this Rant, obviously many members think as I do .
I could go on about, Lane discipline, particularly driving for miles in the outside lane, when the inside lanes are clear.
Driving too slow on major 'A' roads, eg 30-35 mph in a 50 mph limit, resulting in great tailbacks and thus being the cause of a possible accident.

Nevertheless, I'm pleased to hear that some ADI's, still teach the correct use of the handbrake, certainly holding the car on the clutch is surefire way to prematurely wear it out!
Not convinced that the stop/start system, saves money in the long run.

And, to those who object to tailgaters, follow my example, get yourself a Hi-Vis jacket and leave it on the rear parcel shelf, it works wonders!!

Best regards.

 Like the idea of a Hi-Vis, not sure if it would be seen through the tinted window on our EX.

There is no doubt that the Hi-Vis jacket can be seen behind the tinted rear screen of the EX.
Also of course, the silver reflective stripes show up in the glare of following cars headlights.
They also show up when the high level brake light is on.
