I knew it, not just me.
Got stuck behind one of these for a while who would;
Go 20kmh under the limit on double lines...
Unless there was shade on the road, where they'd go 30-40kmh under...
Accelerate to 10kmh over on clear straight bits of road where overtaking might be possible...
Would brake test at random, which wasn't an issue because I wasn't even close to tailgating...
Mid afternoon, minimal cloud and visibility to infinity...
Whilst driving a mobile budget whitegood, aka an MG3...
I tend to be patient to a fault, but this was obnoxious and stupid.
After 20 minutes of this stupidity and an increasing line of cars behind I decided to actually make use of the barra with blowdryer and risk my license in the process. I had dashcam footage of this idiocy so if I got nailed, I'd take that clown with me.
I didn't get nailed, if I was I'd be typing this from a cell right now...
I don't get it. When I'm the slow vehicle, I try to make efforts to be easy to get by and not hold up others. At overtaking sections, I'll sit under the limit to make sure I'm not in the way.
I really, really miss driving in Japan. Yeah, 80kmh on the expressways but the cops don't pay much attention until you're double that and change or being stupid about it...
