    Kind of hard to do with that steering wheel in the way. :biggrin_25525:

    Nah, you just turn a little sideways in the seat so you can kick your feet up beside the steering wheel. Then you use your knee to work the steering wheel :biggrin_25523:

    Nah. Lean your shoulder against the driver door window and put your feet up on the center of the dash. No flexibility required and it's great for dependent edema. Just take your shoes off first or you'll scar up the dash.

    Pretty much how I parked to watch the teletube. Or was that how I rode going down the road? Ah well, they do say the memory is the first to go. Or maybe I made that up....insanity is fun!

    Come on DB, we need more of your quality. Your thread is moving too far down the page.

    I have a question for our resident carabinieri:

    What constitutes "delay of traffic?" On a highway with a single lane in each direction and a split speed limit (60/65) am I delaying traffic if I am maintaining my speed limit of 60mph?

    I'd like to know the same thing regarding 3 lanes of traffic; myself in the middle lane, in a 4 wheeler, doing 70 (the speed limit) or 55 if that is the posted speed limit. This is with the understanding that all 3 lanes are going faster than the posted speed limit.
