  • HGV's in Neutral ? 28 Sep 2010 (Forum)
    Near us here on the A34 on the Oxfordshire / Berkshire borders is a long and rather steep hill. HGV's normally crawl up, but coming the other way, I'm darn sure they come down at well over 60 mph. Do they run down in neutral to avoid the speed limiter? Mmmmm.

  • Serious overtaking 9 Oct 2009 (Forum)
    I suppose if you're going to overtake, you're going to overtake, but this must have been a trifle disconcerting. The real challenge is to work out what does the overtaking I think! Safe for work, and runs about ten seconds. Blink and you miss it. http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1922738
