Pierre the Great Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 On a cold August morning in 1976, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB and had a professional Formula 1 racer, drive at insane speeds through the heart of Paris. This puts Bullit to shame. Seriously. This guy should have put this in a movie He'd have won an oscar. http://www.prezwho.com/ferrari-275-gtb-rip...treets-of-paris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that only North America doesn't follow that rule. All i know is that in holland bikers are allowed to drive slowly through traffic jams. I think its not allowed to overtake a car/whatever in the same lane!(with normal speed, i dont mean the traffic jam) Edited October 5, 2006 by Dutch_Habs_Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
