I don't think he gets paid on productivity so he wouldn't be in a position to offer a commission. 109, less than 70mph, seems a moderate enough speed for a four lane highway that widens to six lanes half a mile ahead. Do you find it surprising that it would considered usual to go at such a pace?

Anyway, what's your exeperiences of speeding or am I the only div???? I really try not to too! But honestly didn't know!

Won't tell you what Gaynor said I have to do when I tell Mr Miggins though lol!

Happy driving

I know it's too late to say this but, the speed limit is a limit - not a target.

You too Phil! (well that makes me feel better lol)

I am fricking dreading checking my post in the mornings now......

Talk about keen! I suppose its what happens for living in a city with a low crime rate where the cops hang out at Timmies and do speed stuff lol!

Still smarting somewhat
