Just some sections of a highway drive last night, mainly to test a new camra mount idea which is as ghetto as possible: strap the camera to a back seat headrest :laugh: works pretty good!

Is there a speed limit there or do you just ignore it? lol

They're reserved for the schoolgirls :cool: :biggrin: I'm not quite sure what you mean by flashers, the turn signals/indicators, or high beam flashers?

there is an "official" speed limit of 80km/h (50MPH) on that highway but really only trucks and buses drive at that speed. Average speed is about 100km/h and usually in the fast lane it's 120-140km/h. There were cars ahead of me going quite faster than that... It may look dangerous and unsafe but in many ways there is order in this chaos, most people have an expectation of what other drivers are going to do, it's like there's an unwritten book of the road, but it does not always go accordingly. Like in that part where I overtook the other Yaris on the left side, I was expecting the car in the fast lane to fall back into the middle lane, but he didn't.

And no, I don't drive like this all the time, hahahah...

thomas: i'm not sure i've seen you use your turn signal, at least, not in the 3-4 first minutes. I've actually skipped around the video, spotting your changing lanes... and without signaling :P
