Rosehip Apr 2021 10:14am, 23 Apr 2021 20,790 posts	0 Rosehip I almost stopped at the services yesterday to work out how to set the limiter - 50 and 60 stretches with cameras all the way up the M1 and M6. I shall have to read the manual

Angus Clydesdale Apr 2021 10:23am, 23 Apr 2021 22,377 posts	0 Angus Clydesdale I’m with Eynsham re road maps!
Velociraptor Apr 2021 10:32am, 23 Apr 2021 52,316 posts	0 Velociraptor Also prefer to use maps and road signs. I hate the distraction of talking/beeping gadgets and live screens when I'm driving.
RichHL Apr 2021 10:53am, 23 Apr 2021 16,023 posts	0 RichHL Radar cruise is brilliant. The arseholes who use my braking zone as their overtaking opportunity should have their peers laugh at their sexual inadequacy.

LindsD Apr 2021 11:13am, 23 Apr 2021 46,553 posts	0 LindsD Also a fan of paper maps, signs, and my brain. The dents on my car are testament to my (lack of) parking ability, though.
jelly (limegreenjelly) Apr 2021 11:34am, 23 Apr 2021 555 posts	0 jelly (limegreenjelly) I’ve had a fair few judgement scrapes LindsD! I’ve been wedged against the trolly park, I even got my car stuck against a postbox that I couldn’t see! I had to find someone to help me move the car without causing too much more damage. It does make me very careful manoevering though! People must wonder why I’m so slow reversing into a space checking and double checking! Parking sensors make me a nervous wreck though! 😂
RichHL Apr 2021 12:13pm, 23 Apr 2021 16,026 posts	0 RichHL I kerbed the alloy wheels on my car when I had to take avoiding action because of a nobber doing a stupid overtake coming towards me. Not a happy bunny.
Bex66 Apr 2021 1:25pm, 23 Apr 2021 216 posts	0 Bex66 Can I join? Been a Fetchie since 2007 but have had to take most of last year off due to knee injury, so coming back slowly via C25k and run-walks with my club. Am about to hit 55 in June.
