Personally, I can't think of anything wrong with that. The more 4X4s that run out of gas on the drive the better. Although some parts of Norway and Sweden are on a similar latitude to the U.K., I was under the impression that large parts of those countries were close to the Arctic Circle and therefore had limited hours of daylight for many months of the year, which makes DLRs quite a sensible move. The U.K. on the otherhand has over 6 months of the year when there are 12 hours of daylight. I know that in summer parts of Scandinavia have almost 24 hours of daylight but nonetheless, I don't want to
have decisions taken away from me.
Don't forget, with sat nav, GPS and electronic engine management the pieces are all in place to have your speed reduced automatically when you get to a lower speed limit. Put that together with Adaptive Cruise Control then how long before your speed is reduced for you whenever the safety Nazis decide they are going to act in the interests of your own safety. After all, they know best.
Just out of interest, in response to a previous comment, the Norwegians didn't
side with the Germans in WW2, but the Quislings did and assumed the role of a puppet government, just as the Vichy French administration did and just as the British would have done had we been invaded. I think I'm right in saying the King of Norway steadfastly refused to kow-tow to the occupiers and numerous Norwegian naval units came to Britain to carry on the fight as did a lot of aircrew. There was also a very active resistance movement.
) pair of normal sidelights but they had pale blue glass and looked quite nice but lasted ages, better than the cheap blue glass ones off Ebay
