Butterfly Netting
« on: April 25, 2016, 08:43:45 PM »
On the way home this Mid arvo got Butterfly Netted  .
Butterfly Netting is when you get stuck behind some  ( Person ) driving at a verrrry low speed on open road .
Our B/N on the way up drove a White Lowlux that could only do 80 km down hill with a tail wind . Don't even think about a gentle incline  .                 :-[  Collected 27 cars
On the way home  , a 15Ft van at almost 80Km on the flat pulled by a Patrol fully kitted , & 35 cars behind it till we caught up to the horse float . We turned off .
& they wonder why l drink                          :'(                                     :cheers:

Was it one of my favorite drivers that can only do 80 everywhere but overtaking lanes when you try and get past and look down and your doing 140 and still can't get past them, they then cut you off at the end of the lane, slam on the brakes and 80 it is again.
I think this driver training is thrown in for free with the sale of horse floats mostly.
