The interesting part was how to "read the minds" of bad drivers on motorways who may do unpredictable things, sometimes you can, if say a car is closing on one ahead. Sometimes you cannot. Your only interest seems to be point scoring by distorting the facts. -- Mike. .. . Gone beyond the ultimate driving machine.
