Those cameras cause some odd behaviour, everyone slows down for the camera's then increases speed after. I drove along there tonight heading towards the city from the Frankston end and as usual the left lane was moving best because it was near empty. Daryl

Don't see that so much any more now that cruise control is so common. They just set it at 90 so they don't keep running into other cars, then pick whatever lane is free and stay there regardless of anyone else on the road. > I drove along there tonight heading towards the city from the Frankston > end and as usual the left lane was moving best because it was near empty. You're lucky then, I usually find cars in all 3 lanes side by side at 90kph. I'm *very* happy when the left lane is clear, because that's the one I'm normally in, at 100kph, when possible. (not as often as I'd like considering I have to pay for the bloody privilege!) MrT.

Got my last Citylink statement yesterday, I'm spending just under $100 per month on bloody tolls which IMO is very poor value for money. Even more annoying is a Hilux and other Jap utes are classed as light commercial and charged at a higher rate but Falcodore utes pay the car rate. Daryl

It's not for sharp jabs just those subtle annoying little taps Kev
