    Because of the high volume of trafic at certain times on our roads it is no longer sensible or practical to overtake other vehicles at any time.

    There is always another vehicle coming from the other direction .

    What is a 14 ft advantage when you may spend 14 days in Hospital.

    Get used to driving in a convoy and avoid tailgating by observing the” two second rule.”

    If some one deliberately “tail gates ” they are PUSHING you, it would be wise for you to slowdown and put your warning emergency flashers on until they back off.

    ” PUSHING” is a ploy used by a driver behind you to control your speed by intimidation.

    ” ARRIVE SAFE NOT SORRY.”
