LOL.. I'd double his ban and double his fine.. Of course I'd confiscate his 911 first once he's got the engine and brakes sorted. He could drop the keys off with me..
Little point if all you're going to do is 70mph.
That moment when you clock the van...

I wasn't after advice. I was just wondering how you overtake without speeding.
I'm still waiting for someone to explain this
So all the GATSOs in lane three of the M25 are redundent, it is afterall the overtaking lane?
On a clear nsl road I don't think anyone would raise an eyebrow if you hit 80 to overtake a car that the was dilydallying, less be honest, I its safer to overtake with some conviction, but over 100 past a bunch of learners? C'mon now, that's just being a dixk.

Lol.. Roads are for traveling on, track days are for driving on. Go as fast as you like if you're not putting others at risk. Shame people treat the roads like there own private race track.
Pointless debating, people will always dig in and defend their view. Which is fair enough, makes the world go round.
There is very little need to. It's a rarity. In the cases where it is a necessity/desirable to it's easy to get past without breaking the speed limit as whatever you are overtaking is moving so slowly anyway.
Still does not impact the original point. That being, it's not legal to break the speed limit while over-taking.
I have no desire to discuss the perceived safety, morality, desirability or otherwise of doing so however.
I had a GT3 and I have a race car, you're preaching to the converted old boy.
LOL... Sorry didn't mean to preach. Nice car, I'm seriously jealous. My mate is a Porsche nut, 964, 3X 993, 996 carrera 4, cab. Kicked it all off with a boxster. (Not all at same time)
Had a 993 which was like it had just come out of the box.
964 is very tempting at the moment, sweet spot I feel, if right they are really right. Chap who bought my GT sold it to buy a 964 and I've got mates and associates with them too, can look superb.
Huge soft spot for 993s, myself. Last and greatest of the air cooled. But well sorted 964 is a joy. Nowt like it, again I have soft spot for Targ. Build quality is just astonishing. But you know that anyway.

Maybe so, but the car is clearly beyond his ability to start snaking like that under heavy braking.

Sometimes you find yourself in a situation where you cant legally overtake someone because they are doing fast enough already or the distance is too large to cover safely within 10% of the limit.
In these situations you can break the law or simply not overtake. 113 is excessive by most peoples standards given the national limit is 70 and that road is a what 60?
Sometimes you have to accept that you can't overtake even if your car has the potential to do so.
