It intends to show the introduction, because of safety, of the three-lane highway where the centre-lane was used for overtaking in both directions. These have I think been completely eliminated on safety grounds in the UK. -- Last edit: 2007-03-29 12:32:57

nzcarnerd ◊ 2007-03-31 00:27	Check this one out. Note the horizontal louvres. http://www.vintagecommercialvehicle.freeserve.co.uk/bedford/c05-17t-04-2000.jpg
