Probably the best point raised so far! How many times have I pointed out to one of my colleagues that the 'tool' taxiing the aircraft ahead has stopped FAR short of the holding point... Get up to the line people!!!
As an aside, back in about 2000 I heard DUB ATC telling a Ryanair flight to slow down... Clocked at 68kts on the parallel taxiway after landing on 28
