The part I love is when you talk about the odometer in a car. They use kilometers to measure the milage. I guess kilometage just wouldn’t roll off the tongue.
Driving related measurements are a total clusterfuck. By default all distances are in miles. But distance markers along the motorways are placed at metric distances. But some markers are in yards. But then some are in fucking kilometres. And then you drive on the left, but of course there’s a fucking road in London where you drive on the right. Because fuck you, that’s why!
I know they use mph. Do they use km for distance or miles? I think they use meters for shorter distances so I’ve no clue.
