interesting, everyone is an expert when they were not there!!!
1. wife took the photo,
2. speed limit was 110 , i was doing 110 even though it was raining!
3. i started of in the left lane . lane 1
ended up in lane 2,as there was an off ramp
and for you traffic experts if you were ever in the cops and i was for 26 years don't try and lecture me on safe driving techniques or truckies versions of how they should be driving.

1.. My apologies, I assumed you had taken it :(Quote:

3.. In the pic there are at least 2 lanes showing on the right... If one is a turn off then OK, that leaves another...
And over the years I have known many police officers... Most of them up here are mates of mine... It has nothing to do with it...
Your photo shows nothing proof... Like a speed camera photo it is a moment caught in time.
You can't prove from that photo that you didnt cut him off, that he wasnt braking, that he hadnt changed lanes to avoid a slow vehicle out of frame etc...
If you were doing 110km/h then he was falling back, the highest limiters I've seen top at 108km/h... And they are few and far between! Most are 102-104km/h
So unless he's a rogue driver, has a bypassed speed limiter etc... then something just doesnt add up here....
These are just observations, not personal attacks... They are attacking the situation NOT the person.
Being a Series landy driver, i tend to always be in the left lane. I generally won't drive above 90 and will usually cruise along at 80. It really bloody annoys me the number of people that sit on your ass trying to get you to speed up instead of keeping their distance and waiting a few seconds to be able to get in the next lane and overtake. :mad:
Another pet hate i have is people that can't match their speed with the rest of the traffic when merging onto a motorway.
I dare say there must be a lot of these rogue truckies out there. I can say i have seen a fair share trucks doing speeds greater than that. :eek:Quote:

I have to say the first two photos were really hazy, you can't even see the cars in front. :angel::p:wasntme:Quote:
