    drives as a courier, and keeps to the limit.......

    As already mentioned, the tracker had him at 35mph!

    And if I'm being genuinely honest, I don't remember seeing any courier going at break neck speed for many a year. It just messes up their carefully stacked parcels that have been placed in order of intended delivery, by them personally. The fact that the vehicles are tracked for both speed and location you'd be silly to provide the police with PROOF you've drove too fast, and risk losing your licence and job etc.

    Yep, but never let logic get in the way of a nice stereotypical rant particularly when it involves white van drivers

    Why was your friend doing just 35 on a 60mph road?

    In case he met someone coming the other way?
    It's a limit, not a target.
