Tour Scotland Summer travel video of a road trip drive, with Scottish music, from Rosyth in Fife, North up the M90 motorway, then through Gairney Bank and Kinross, on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to Milnathort , Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. Situated on the A91, the main Stirling to St. Andrews road, Milnathort is an attractively maintained small town with a long history. It was developed as a market town and as a community of wool and linen weavers; flax was widely grown in the County until the 1st World War, and in 1880 there were 129 weavers in the Parish of Orwell which includes Milnathort. This Scottish road originates in Edinburgh, it then travels west and over the Queensferry Crossing, before turning into the M90 motorway. It is the northernmost motorway in the UK. Unless a motorway is a natural extension of an A road, you join it from a slip road. Accelerate until you are travelling alongside the traffic already on the motorway and slot in, using your mirrors and indicators. The speed limit is usually 70mph, but there are occasions when signs tell you that there’s a lower speed limit in force. Keep left when you can. Use the outside lanes only when you need to overtake. Overtake only on the right of other cars, unless you’re crawling in a traffic jam. Don’t use the hard shoulder unless you have a breakdown or you are directed to do so. It’ is illegal to use it otherwise. Signs on central reservations apply to all lanes. Signs above the road on gantries can apply only to the lanes they’ are over. Don’t tailgate, and leave even more room between you and other vehicles if it’s wet, icy or foggy. Get in the left-hand lane in good time before you reach your exit junction. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome. The date for astronomical Summer in Scotland is Tuesday, 21 June, ending on Friday, 23 September. When driving on Scottish roads in Scotland slow down and enjoy the trip
