i was on a trip to Himos, 276 kms driven in one evening last friday.



A younger guy with a Audi A5 overtook me with a moderatedly high speed.
Didn't really care, german car drivers do it a lot and he did a relatively safe overtake, even if he overspeeded.

some kilometres later i see the audi stopped at a bus stop, with a police car behind


why the rush?


Had one stop for streching legs, checking water and oil just in case.

my average mileage for the trip was about 5,4L/100km 43MPG

but in Mid-Finland, the speed limits are slower, probably because more traffic. Drove mostly about 80km/h / 50mph of the trip.
