How can I do that they are Spades Not Picks???

My kingdom for a shovel!

I was doing the 100 limit in the middle lane on the M1 northbound last night and a long Toll truck whistled past me in the inside lane.
Up the Gateway bridge he slowed so I just did the 80 limit and went ahead.
Back down in the 100 and he whistles past again.
Didn't do him any good because the 80 limit in the Nudgee roadworks got him.
He didn't cause a problem, but I don't think he gained anything by risking a fine. He might as well have just sat on the limit.

It's been a long time since the radar has been on the bottom of the bridge. Always interesting when they are conducting lessons and a dozen units are watching the two northbound lanes at the toombul rd exit.

Look down and see the pedal on the right. Well put your right foot on it and press down and you won't be tailgated.

We should have let them secede in the 1930's after their referendum. I was the WA Zone Manager for a heavy machinery company in the 70's. We used to call them the evenly balanced Australians. A chip on each shoulder.

But those angry men will flash their lights at you and lighten your wallet.
