YES ,. I agree older drivers have a higher statistical number of accidents! . BUT I have noticed that due to my 'SLOWER ' speed, l get cut off & tailgated a lot more often. Whenever l try to use a normal speed, the wife reminds me " We are Not in any hurry now, enjoy the trip ". I have only been involved in ONE serious accident, but Not the driver, AND It made utube for almost a year, ( wheel ripped off speeding stolen car, hitting our vehicle ). Our driver was a professional truckie ! & could do nothing about getting side swiped. I didn't feel at all like driving for 18 months afterwards. 64 years with only ' speeding tickets plus 3 for parking, & l won one parking case. AND now one ' red light ticket ' of 0.5 seconds, shows how Slow l drive, LoL spacesailor

I used that Pyxis to find my way around Australia. It worked fine, but only gave the coordinates. No moving map, then !. So had to bring along my IBM laptop to get the nap With the coordinates as a curser. The rest was " old school " paper maps & charts. ALSO Have a very old & unused " Sinclair micro pc " . Just couldn't be bothered with it, as superceded, before looking at it. spacesailor

Probably the End for the first G P S , 1991. SONY PYXIS. IPS-360 only two channel. So deadly slow when new. LoL spacesailor

Diesel carburetor. My diesel 4m40 Mitsubishi has a double butterfly carby, so it cannot run ' backwards '. It does other things as well, but economy isn,t the best at 12.5 L,p.100 k. And thats the best it has ever achieved. Normally 14L.p.100.k. over many thousands of Ks and 24 years. spacesailor

There,s an old Rumour !. A flight training facility can knock back a student to further their bank balance. Hopefully it seldom happens. But why those double edged test questions. If not to keep you in their clutches. spacesailor
