Chid 6,610 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 Theres loads of differant ones , like knocking the splitter down on dafs , taking the free play out of the clutch pedal ... pulling the abs fuse on scanias ... switching the ignition on and off .... fact is you cant fiddle the tacho so any way you think these guys are making themselves go faster, your wrong and need to learn how to drive proper before lab starts tail gateing you and calling you names and giving you rude gestures 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jacknife 2,005 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 The ones that said 50 should be banned for a year and made to re sit there test. There the folk that go 50 in a 70 and 40 in a 60 holding everybody up and causing accidents. Was behind some prick the other night driving on a 60 and he was doing 40......got to the town which is a 30 and he continued to do 40....rage! Wish it was legal to batter these folk aff the road like!!! So you must be the prick that tail gates everyone in front for a few mins before overtaking?If your the prick doing 40 in a 60 then yes I'm the prick that's tail gaiting ye!!.....lolOnly thing is I'm confident in my driving and your obviously not so be safer wi you off the road. It's called patience, I don't have much mind you nor do I drive slow but when my woman is driving with the kids in the back she won't go over 60 on a 70 or 50 on a 60, you'd be surprised how many idiots tailgate even with a baby on board sign on the back and it can be a pretty dangerous and of putting thing to do! Usually a wee hand gesture from me in the passenger seat out the back window makes them get to f**k away, fecking hate it!!! Whats the logic in doing 10mph under the speed limit its no safer Wont do 60 in a 60 but will do 60 in a 70 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lukey 1,621 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 It's a speed LIMIT it's not a compulsory speed, do you think the 70mph road is the same as the 60mph road? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Had a few of them 40 on a country road,then 40 through the village, and I'm in about 3/4 th gear behind them as it won't go into top at that speed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 13,261 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 As chid said no matter what trick you pull the tacho is gonna record the speed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bracken boy 584 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 I know that ffs did i bring tachos into it? Just saying speed is still possible in certain trucks geeez is it arguement time lol now f... O.. Hehehe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Makes no difference on the road I just don't see how doing 10mph under the limit makes it safer Road conditions are far more important and if most cars are doing 70+ on the motorway I would say going slow is far more dangerous You will probably find the journey far less stressful as you wouldn't have your minor road rage incidents of people tailgating Quote Link to post Share on other sites
arnieboy 93 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 worst offenders are the pricks who sit in the middle lane in road works doing 45 not 50 and WONT move back in to the nearside lane thus hampering all lorries by reducing the options for the lorry driver. ffs just do as it says in the highway code move back in after overtaking 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stabba 10,745 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Going a lot slower than the speed limit is an offence if the road conditions are favourable. The offence is "not making progress". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dytkos 17,821 Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 The've recently changed the speed limit from 40 to 30 just up the road from me.Silly bollocks went through yesterday and got flashed by someone coming the opposite way.Too late, I was doing about 35-40 when I saw the camera van. So expecting the letter Good job I had the trailer on or it would have been 45-50 Cheers, D. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
k99yle 53 Posted December 14, 2014 Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 Ffs i know my speed the new ones yes they harder but im telling you some trucks are going faster so neck time you on motorway check it out, ok why do i know well just a few years ago i got told a trick i tried it and on certain trucks u can go faster.. My Hilux invincible says mph on the clock when its actually doing 72 mph. Lots of manufactures make speedos read incorrectly to make their MPG figures look better, You may be going a lot slower than you think???? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
