Quite common on here, the "I overtook someone and blah blah blah" threads.

I and a few others have been known to state that we have never really experienced any negative reaction to our overtaking (perhaps due to a combination of fast car, driving God-ness and general handsomeness), with the commensurate implication that SOME OF YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG.

It would be interesting to see how widespread this issue is nowadays.

Perhaps what you drive and where you drive are as much a factor as how you drive. Are things worse oop North/daan Saaath? Is the problem increasing over time?

As always, your thoughts would be most welcome.

Does undertaking count?
No.

A poll for another day perhaps.

C'mon admit it - which one of you picked the 'feeble' option?

hehe

Don't like the poll options - should separate regularity with severity.
Think of it as an 'and/or'. I like to keep my polls simple.

Only works on older stuff with the ball type washer jets, just stick a pin in and adjust. The twins are better then you can leave half of the n/s jet pointing towards the screen. wink Let me know how you get on!

Remember to put it back right for MOT time.
I was thinking a third, remotely operated auxiliary washer

I have so many ideas right now laugh
Ensure that you fill it with piss rather than the usual ineffectual pale blue stuff.
