Good thread :)

As road users we all need to be aware of the other drivers 'skill' limits or their vehicles 'foibles' or both.

The C class road upto my place means I have to drive for 10 minutes with my own vehicle to go collect parcels off anything over a luton size lorry.

And in the summer we only get one cut at the end of the season cos the parks think its real nice to have flowers (in the shape of ferns, bracken, blackthorn, long overhanging grass cos its not looked afetr) in the hedges.  Townies have trouble enough going forward without shitting themselves let alone going backwards :)

I think its a good idea increasing the speed limit for tractors (does anyone adhere to that?).

Whats worse than a wide tractor - is seeing the lead car of a wide load going past at 50mph then you see a lorry with a static carvan ripping up the road with branches hanging of it on the white lines.
