Re: Lorry drivers think they rule the road
I hate passing the big trucks and lorries.
They can get my car to sway a bit.

Re: What is the best Sat Nav to buy?
I have a TomTom sat nav and its been ok with me so far. It still tries to take me up narrow dust roads though. Then when it does that you have to reverse and go a long way to get back on a different route. All you do is go to the settings and ask it to calculate an alternative route otherwise it wil...
