Re: Posting pictures
What is the easiest free way to put up a photo? Try this ( https://imgbb.com/ ). No need to register. It even generates the code to put in your posting for you and does thumbnails, small images and full fat ones. I'd suggest you remove any EXIF data from your pics before posting anywhere. FB etc. d...

I wondered whether in view of the signing which surely doesn't meet legal requirements there is no speed limit legally in force (other than the national, which is shown on the other side, both sides of the road)...

Re: Driving with DSG
Interesting. In general my model of good driving involves trying to make all the transitions smooth, but quite happy to use firm braking or acceleration in the middle. On the other hand, in dealing with what I call the 'progress imperative' with IAM Associates, I say: "Imagine you are taking so...

Re: A Local Incident
I prefer more road safety education in schools to young teenagers focusing on psychological factors - dangers, peer pressure, the idea that it is cool to drive safely.

Re: Driving with DSG
YOU really control the gearbox with your right foot. Sure it will have kickdown, but sensitive use of the throttle will affect when it changes up/down. It takes a while to develop that touch, but once you do you won't want to go back to a manual. Oh no? What about the satisfaction from accurate rev...
