I still feel some aspects of the test are not consistent throughout the country this has been mentioned at past committee meetings within the group one such example is that our current examiner will allow "some" miles per hour over the speed limit when performing an overtake - yep! I can see his reasoning for this as to be honest I wouldn't want to be stuck on a single carriageway with a HGV heading towards me but I feel that if this was done in some other areas this could result in a fail.

Far from it. I accept that the days when I could charge across country in some vast gas-guzzling behemoth are over, and I am much less sanguine about doing it even than I was a few years ago.

I was taught ( I hope correctly) that a car is at its most efficient at full throttle, so if you were to full throttle to a speed, then coast until you raech a pre-determined lower speed, then full throttle again etc etc you would gain the most efficiency, although not perhaps the smoothest drive.
