Re: Driving on the wrong side of the road.

... I rarely brake, gauging my speed to avoid ever having to stop... I don't use my indicators.!! Except I only do so, when there are no other road users to interact with. (angel) (apart from my avoiding braking). So I feel more than a little hypocritical when I'm constantly astounded by the ...

Re: Cat-D right offs

Re: Driving on the wrong side of the road.

Driving is very bad now. There's a road near work, marked out with two lanes. The roundabout has two lanes and the road you enter has two painted lanes. If someone stood there for a day and observed I would be very surprised if more than 20% ...
