20 - 30 mph farm vehicles very common around here (rural cambs).

100 mph traffic (or close to) in NSL (or ex NSL 50mph zones): not un-common actually ! Often perfectly safe to do that speed

never assume anything!!

We always work on the overtake as completing the whole manoeuvre within half the distance that we can see to be clear. That way there is massive additional room for the totally unique problem like car failure ! (Have had that happen too! Rotor arm broke!)
