Just the one Ianto.W. Just the one.

Fire one!
One running true sir!
I have yet to meet a country lane where the speed limit is more than 40 mph in the UK steeljack. This might seem to be a strange concept to some people but if the road sign declares a speed limit of say 40 mph I do not exceed that limit regardless of the idiots behind me. Actually that is not strictly true because in the UK there is a leeway of 10% plus 2 mph so if gravity causes my speed to increase I will allow it to rise to 46mph before taking action to keep to the limit. If the road conditions are such that it isn’t safe to travel at that speed I slow down to a speed that I consider to be safe. Others may and probably do have a different view on the situation and will feel comfortable at a higher speed. We can’t all be Stirling Moss’s.

I have been known to pull over and wave past the idiots behind me and let them reach the morgue before their time.

I KNOW that I’m not a bad driver and that doesn’t mean to say that I consider myself to be a good driver - that is someone else’s call.

Now why should I be returning my license? A clean one for more than 20 years I may add. My car is not a status symbol. It is a tool to be used when required and being retired my annual mileage is going to be low.

I don’t care how drivers behind me feel, as I will generally not exceed the speed limit although I will go with the flow when required to even if it means breaking the speed limit. What I won’t do is scream up to a speed camera, slam the anchors on before reaching it and then burn rubber after passing it. Sadly too many drivers do just that and tailgate others in the process.

Hit amidships skipper.
Roger torps, nice shooting!
