There's usually room for two vehicles and a cyclist.

You need a car with better acceleration.

There certainly wasn't 17 years ago, when a motorist knocked my bike over - when I was riding it.

Then ride in the gutter where you belong.

NYC has over 8 million in about 300 square miles...

Just because no one wants to live near you ... :)

You have very wide roads or very narrow vehicles. My fondness for bike paths has increased as my desire to share the road with F350 dualies pulling horse trailers has decreased.

I was raised in upstate NY. There's a reason I left the state in the early '70s.

At Blyth the satnav says take the A1 then the M18. That option is 26 miles but going via Oldcoates is 9 miles but 1 minute longer. You can't tell me that going at a sensible speed along a decent B road for 9 miles uses more fuel than going 26 miles down the motorway at 70mph.

Normally modern farm machinery does 25mph on public roads.

Most have an 'avoid' choice when the itinerary is shown.

that way? For example it takes you on a road you know is closed at a c= ertain point. Mine only lets me say "there's a road block in 1 mile, 2 = miles, 3 miles etc, it's not easy to just say "don't take that road". I= f it was a human you'd just say "avoid the A68" etc.

My ancient Garmin receives traffic warnings, so it will warn of a delay or closure many miles ahead. Touch the warning and it will ask whether to divert to avoid it and offer a new route along with however many minutes it will save. Simple enough to do on the move if necessary - as it tends to be if you are on a motorway and there is an emergency closure ahead.

The old dual power MH44 would do 30 in road gear if you were brave enough and stupid enough to try - - - The old Norseman would go even faster, if you were even stupider and braver.

The slower it goes, the easier it is to overtake.

And if I was driving it, I'd pull over in laybys to let people past. Where is politeness nowadays?
