Pulling to the left
Car pulls to the left when braking at 60-70mph, it's fine driving around town at normal speeds, I noticed it today when pulling off the slip road of the motorway.

Before doing anything, check all tyre pressures.

Also look at tread levels, and for baldness on the inner edges.

Tyres are all ok mate and I've just had the geo done due to the car having new rear shocks last month.
