Re: Speed limiters mandatory from 2022?
PS. This topic is public as it is not specifically IAM ;) even if it were in the IAM sub-forum here - that is only restricted to registered members - it is not restricted to IAM only members as I have no way of validating IAM membership... and as we allow anyone who looks genuine to register - effe...

Re: Speed limiters mandatory from 2022?
I'm quite happy for them to come back to me. They were the ones who shut down the private forum for discussion and said they were happy to wash their dirty laundry in public.

Re: Speed limiters mandatory from 2022?
I share your pain. But I have a way of mitigating the frustration, irritation and exasperation. :) I do not regard myself, and never have, as "working for the IAM". I have always regarded myself as "working for the associate". So, as far as I'm concerned, the IAM is simply a mea...

Re: Speed limiters mandatory from 2022?

Re: Hello all
your pace/speed/progress will naturally rise It shouldn't, any increase in speed should be a conscious decision. Well as you snipped that bit off the front of my quote ;) What I clearly said was "if you get all the aspects of driving to the system working correctly". So conscious decision...

What I would say is that if you get all the aspects of driving to the system working correctly your pace/speed/progress will naturally rise. The...

It's true that the weight is carried higher than my old GTR, as ...

Re: Who goes first?

As in that case, both cars would be crossing the path of the other, and both cars would be distrupting the flow of traffic!. The advice here is for the two right turning veh...
