Just bought me a new whizzo sat nav. Should help with speed limits. I understand they also drop when it's raining. Another thought about hi viz. I have two luminescent yellow cycling jackets. Presume they'll pass the test?

Yep speed limits are lower when raining (except in urban 50s). The Hi Vis you have is fine.

It's not 10 k/ph less they need. Tailgating is a national sport and it's that which probably causes more deaths! I'm considering getting my garage guy to rig my foglights on a separate switch … that should solve the problem! … :thumbsup:

Keep them accessible from inside the car - no going to the boot to grab them!

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

Yes thanks. Our daughter is autistic. Doesn't live with us, but we're on call 24/7 for 'emergencies'! Never a dull moment :D :D
