Stopping at traffic lights

[Adam W]

I don't believe that all the people who stop short of the line are advanced drivers, I think it's the opposite and they can't judge where they should stop so err on the side of caution; this is why they then edge forward before the lights change.

Oooh think we touched a nerve there! I find 255bhp more than enough to pull a horse trailer and 2 horses with no effort. Any more than that becomes accademic, when are you going to use it, apart from at traffic light grand prize, then every one thinks you're a knob!

Lights turn to green, motorcyclist drops match onto petrol tank, car driver sails padt laughing like s drain!
