Mandy has a problem with huge black utes, naming the ‘Ram’ as an example, and yes I too, and I am sure many motorists would also be aware how intimidating they can be when they come up behind you with their bright LED lights beaming toward you.
Mandy goes on to say that she’s driving at 109km on the highway where the speed limit is 110km and coming up behind is the great big black Ram. A highway with a 110km/h would be at least a four lane motorway (two lanes each direction) therefore she would be driving in the outside lane, a lane for overtaking slow vehicles, what’s she doing out there? I thought only Queenslanders do that. I can understand the frustration of the driver of the big black Ram, stuck behind a car doing 109km on a 110km road.
Driving on the M1 most cars set their cruise control to roughly 115km and stay in the left lane, moving out when overtaking cars doing 109km or under. There are many Mandy Nolan’s on the road, that’s fine, just remember, keep left, everyone is happy.
