No stickers!
I did a 400 mile round trip yesterday, Norfolk to Southampton and back. A11, M11, M25 M3. Saw loads of D3's and D4's, no stickers, no waves!
I did get a wave from a Defender driver on the M3, as I passed him, but none from Discovery drivers.
As a sub note, Driving standards, particularly on the M25, were atrocious! Main issue being drivers doing 50/55 mph in lane 2 or 3, forcing cars to cross 2 or 3 lanes to overtake! Glad I don't have to go on the M25 much any more.Richard

I thought that was how motoways worked these days.
Lorries in lane 1 doing 50 MPH
Lorries in lane 2 doing 52 MPH
Cars in lane 3 doing anything between 70-100 MPH
its an excellent system

Not just in UK, we have same issues here and then there's the last minute dash across all lanes to hit the exit without care to speed or other traffic Experience is a difficult teacher, because she gives the test first and then the lesson afterwards!!!!
