General car ChatDiscuss general car tuning, styling and driving (Things that would also work on just about every other type of car.) This includes a new Diesel subforum along with our Polls and Styling forum.
I've notice people slowing up a bit on Motorways - perhaps it's the high cost of fuel?
I remember in the good old days Lots of drivers would shoot past me but now there is only the odd driver, usually with foreign plates in a German car that flys past me. (An a Peugeot 406 HDi Diesel oddly enough! )

When it comes to pricing - the oil companies have us all over a barrell!
I think average speeds have dropped a little - transient speeds by quite a margin, which kind of shows the futility of trying to go everywhere at light speed. You don't really make that much ground on everyday journeys.
I certainly have been grannying my car about recently just to wring another couple of MPG from it. It seems every time I buy fuel the price has gone up a penny or so per litre. I'm also considering cutting my loyalty to BP Ultimate diesel but the actual difference is so small compared to the overall price.
Are drivers slowing up in general?
