if you are stuck behind a slower car (or cars) on an A or B road and NSL they will invariably be doing 47 mph?!!

Not 50, or 40, or even 45, but 47. Must be some physical law.

See if I'm wrong!

But what gets me is that when they hit a 40 or 30 mph speed limit they don't change - 47 mph constantly.

Posted on the Griff forum, as I don't trust any other forum to take an objective view.

Can you tell I'm bored at work?!!

Out in the sticks where we live you get the 'slomos' doing 40 in the lovely unrestricted B road then stupidly carry on at 40 when going into the built up 30 mph bit through the village - lunacy, they drive me mad!!! I have been known on more than one occasion whilst exercising the Griff to overtake at a great speed, very naughty I know!!! whistle
