I was stuck in a tailback this evening on the A3. Crawling along at between 4 and 10 MPH for 45 minutes, so over 5 more likely 10 miles of traffic. I expected to see a major incident. Nope, one car almost totally on the verge with a police car behind it with the nearside lane coned off for about...

I was out and about on the M25 last night. There were umpteen roadworks and speed restrictions. I was coming into a section that had the inside lane closed and the speed limit had been 60, 50 & finally 40. I'm sitting at about 45 when I see a whole lot of traffic coming up behind me at...

SLK 350 R172. I am trying to find a supplier of the little screw clips that hold the lid to the battery compartment on. The lid also acts as an air intake duct for the cabin air. Mercedes say that the thumbscrew part of the clip is only available with the air box.

I'm driving down the A3 tonight on cruise at 70MPH. The road is pretty quiet. Any cars that I catch up, I indicate in plenty of time and pull out to overtake. I must have had at least half a dozen people speed up as I got level with them. I had one guy speed up so I dropped in behind him, he...

Driving through Petworth town square today. Really busy, stop start traffic. I stopped to let two let two little old ladies cross the square. Some impatient fool drove up the inside of me at a rate of knots and very nearly mowed them down. Luckily they saw him coming and stopped. They waved...

I was a few yards off joing a busy dual carriageway tonight when I was overtaken on the slip road by a large silver merc going like a bat out of hell. I had matched speed with the traffic flow and was indicating to pull into a nice gap on the inside lane. He was behind me and overtook me at the...

Came across a really big box junction yesterday across the entrance and exit to a naval base in Portsmouth. There was enough space for two cars on the other side of the junction so I followed the car in front through it. I couldn't believe it the driver of the car in front stoppedand allowed...
