I think wagons and anything towing should be banned to the inside lanes of our motorways and dual carriageways ;D


But caravans travel slightly faster than the lorries.

Worst problem on MWAYS are old farts and young girls MLOCing at 65 to 70

I am not overly bothered by 2 lanes for slower traffic as long as it isn't a 5 mile 0.01mph difference lorry race, I think it was the A14 as worst example.

But all trucks should be travelling at 56 mph and when you do get the odd one thats doing 57mph it takes forever to get past. The shops wouldn't be empty it would just take a little longer to get there thats all ;D

But banning trucks to the inside lane would cure that because they wouldn't be able to over take ;D

i'm gonna settle this argument :) lol

Of course top gear is better. i can't believe anyone could even compare TG to FG. ive seen almost all the TG shows and read almost all of JC's books. i have watched quite a few FG episodes too and in my opinion theyre boring. yes they do serious reviews on the cars normal people will buy but come on, what's exciting about a vauxhall corsa or a ford focus?

however TG takes these reviews and MAKES them interesting. thats why its viewed more!

please check out the following link where JC reviews the vauxhall signum or insignia or whatever its called. if u cant be bothered to watch the whole thing just go to 4 mins 35 seconds.

boring car, hilarious review
