You need to look at your driving in your own Video's to confirm that.;)0 -

^^ Ah well you see, I don't like the fuel prices... But I have a little saying "It's stupid to worry about something you can't change, it's stupid to worry about something you can".
The worst thing for fuel consumption is short journey's, speed has very little impact, but how quickly you reach that speed does....“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

But.... I could accelerate from 10mph to 70mph slowly and use less fuel than someone in the same car accelerating from 10mph to 40mph quickly.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

So stop worrying about me doing 50mph, because you aren't ever going to change it, no matter how much you tailgate and weave from side to side.0 -

I never said I did
But I firmly believe in people power, if enough people complained, we might start to see the law being enforced a bit more practically.
Now as for all this thanking, it's turning into a big of sausage party guys.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”
