I don’t know when it started. Or how, nor why. Folk on single carriageways just don’t overtake anymore. Even folk with powerful motors.
You’ll come across a tractor. Farmer guy is plodding along doing his thing. There’ll be someone two inches behind him and a line of traffic behind that car too. Not a single person will try and pass. Not one, nada, zilch!
Then there’ll be me in my little diesel van trying my best to keep my em pee gees above 60. Planning my overtake with surgical precision.
Do you know what it’s like trying to overtake in my van?
Well, of course you’re dying to know. I mean, what else is itching your intrigues on a Friday night.
Well, I’ll tell ya.
It’s a bit like booking a doctors appointment. You’ve got to call two weeks ahead at 8am sharp!
Otherwise you missed your slot!
This is what it like overtaking in my little diesel van. I might have to drop a cog or two. Engine makes a little more noise but the placebo effect works and I’ll eventually overtake.
What follows next will be either a flashing of headlights of just some casual abuse. In fact I overtook someone today and didn’t get any abuse. I was tempted to pull over and ask if all is well.
You can overtake safely and within the law and without upsetting anyone. It really isn’t one of the seven cardinal sins. Neither is it que jumping, pushing in or whatever people who admire the backside of tractors can conjure in their heads.
It’s been a lovely week otherwise. Jumper in the morning, t-shirt afternoon type weather. Had some cracking haddock and chips though.
Ps – it’s a limit not a target Bros. Get a life!
Pps or is it pss – Not many pics or exploring this week. Too dark.
So, do you need a courier who will overtake the entire planet to get your stuff delivered on time whilst caring for the environment? You should 🤨
