For the do-gooders, nowhere is it ever mentioned that 3 digit driving can happen in Milton Keynes, which I doubt is possible there anyway, except possibly on the A5(d), which is where I had my bump. Said bump was 100% carelessness of the woman who hit me, clearly not used to her new car (picked up the day before I believe). I wouldn't have called it a speed related incident, except clearly she didn't stop. Nor did the guy in the outside lane who hit me, though he said he didn't even touch the brakes before impact. The woman could have avoided me quite easily IMHO, even if she was going a lot quicker.

Having read all the various pattern v OE v TC parts debates on brakes, the only way to settle an argument is for someone to try it. Hence I do know its possible to fire ABS at a 3 digit speed in the dry. I never said where the test was done, and I keep it secret some of the places I used to have regular access to.

We could argue that the plodders, sat at 60mph in the middle lane of the motorway, are more dangerous, but they, like the knobhead cyclists jumping lights, feel they can hold the moral highground.

Right, back to technical discussion...
