""Well you can't legislate for every circumstance, such as cars pulling trailers up long hills, those b*ast*ard caravans""

There's that egregious crap about caravans again, from somebody who hasn't noticed that it isn't 1950 any more, and there aren't any ten horsepower cars either.

My Rover will comfortably pull my van uphill and down at a steady sixty on any motorway in the country, and so will any modern car over 1600cc.

We are to be found on the left and middle lane of motorways, which always leaves one lane free for the speed maniac sales rep to use.

Even on country lanes UI don't reckon to hold anyone up, usually driving at my legal limit of fifty and handling corners very much better than the a***hole in cars I constantly meet, coming round bends with two wheels on my side of the road.
