in rush hour traffic, it's actually more relaxing to sit at 60mph in the slow lane, because you don't feel in a rush, so don't get stressed but you get to work nearly the same time 
Agreed, I generally donty go above 60 on the A34 in the mornings, might lose me a minute or 2 but thats it

Yeah, but if you remember your hazard perception, you prepare and pull out when safe, boot it passed and then slow back down. And by sitting at 60mph in a 12v you leave 15mph in reserve like boost

Holy fuck
I was always the one who harked on about 3p/litre decreases is not a lot and the difference between filling up with diesel and petrol is only about £3, but I worked out that the saving of 35 litres at 119.9p and 99.9p is £6

But you'll get that £6 back with better MPG

It won't drop much more because the barrels are priced in USD and the GBP has dropped about 18% against the doller so we are basically paying 18% more than we should.
