Hyde Park 4th-6th July N-E Meet and Mainland July 5th Meet in Holland

[Shorty]

I've driven to worksop from Sheffield! By... accident. It's really easy. You're only on the M1 for about 10-15 minutes.

Yeah but he's just passed and therefore never driven on a motorway.

 

I think it would be more scary for me as the passenger.

[Shorty]

Well you have to have a first time at some point! The M1's not that bad around Sheff, it gets worse further south (busier) and further north (windier!), around here you just crawl slowly down the left hand lane and onto your turnoff. Then you squeeze past Rotherham, you're on the parkway and you practically fall into Sheffield. A motorway is just a dual carriageway with an extra lane on the inside for idiots.

Am I somewhat disillusioned about the motorway appearing easier to drive on than round a generic city?

[nightwolf]

That's why pass plus = win.

Faster = Scarier = Easier to die

 

My old instructor doesn't do Pass Plus so i'd have to find another one. I'll just get my dad to come with me first time as a sort of trial run.

That's what I think aswell.

The thing is, when you're learning to drive they're not allowed to take you on the motorway. Which gives you this terrifying image of something they're too scared to take you on in case you kill yourself and them and everyone behind you.

[Ellmeister]

Pfft motorways are nothing more than what J7 said! Its just an extra lane for the speedy people to overtake the slower people.

 

I've been on motorway quite a few times and the only problem with a motorway is the annoying traffic that I nearly always encounter!

 

I should really do my pass plus at some point as well =]

[Shorty]

I agree that motorways are an easy drive. I'd sooner drive down the M1 than the centre of London.

[ReZourceman]

Aye, Strider motorways are 100% genuinely easy, and not worth the taboo they are tagged with.

[MoogleViper]

Am I somewhat disillusioned about the motorway appearing easier to drive on than round a generic city?

 

I agree entirely. I'm still learning and I'd much rather go on a motorway than round a city.

[McPhee]

EDIT: And what's so scary about being near to me! Ask any one of the 15 people from teh online that I've met, I'm right nice, me.

 

Right?

 

I'd be scared if i lived near you

[Shorty]

So,did the Holland meetup never happen? Or was it just so uneventful that nobody's talking about it?

HAHAHAHH! That last pic is epic. I have no recollection of WTF I was thinking then.

[Dannyboy-the-Dane]

You gotta be kidding me! I've never really payed attention to this thread 'cause I knew I wouldn't be able to go because ... well, too busy, too lazy, call it what you want. Now, for some unexplained reason, I finally check the thread, only to find out the meeting took place while I was in London! Jesus!

[nightwolf]
