Reflection 1: Overtaking two Road-trains... at once!

Step 1: Spit out any chewing-gum, take anything sharp out of your pockets, and make sure you have clean underwear on... you'll need it!

Step 2: Gradually edge closer behind the 2nd road train. Try to remain focused. If they are cattle trains, try not to be put off by the smell or the splatters of 'cow juice' on your windscreen. Switch your air-conditioner to 'internal circulation'. Turn your wipers on if the splatters get real bad.

Step 3: Wait until you have a very long, very straight stretch of road. No, longer. No, even longer than that. Trust me, over taking two road-trains, 50m-long each, going 100km/h... you'll need longer than you think.

Step 4: Ensure you have a good soundtrack playing. Kenny Loggins - 'Highway to the Danger Zone' would suffice. Pearl Jam - 'Last Kiss' isn't a recommended selection.

Step 5: When you think you've found your opportunity, edge out behind the 2nd road train and check the road ahead for kangaroo carcases. Nothing worse than having to swerve to avoid a big, rotting hunk of kangaroo in the middle of the road while overtaking. When you think you've found your spot, put on your indicator, hold your breath, and...

Step 6: Floor. It.

Step 7: Don't worry about any Country Courtesy Wave (CCW) opportunities, 'cause there's no time for that. Just keep on going...

Step 8: Ignore the beeping coming from your Ford Fairmont high-speed warning as you kit 125km/h. Just keep on going...

Step 9: When you've passed the leading road train, pull back to the left-side in front of it. Exhale.

Step 10: Pull into the next Mobil service station for a change of underwear.
