Having had another bad week on the M25 I decided I had to get this off my chest. I use the M25 anti-clockwise to return home from the M4 interchange, but the worst stretches in my opinion are the M3 interchange and the A3 interchange.
Queues at these sections are exacerbated by the mindless morons who nip down the long exit approach roads and then nip back into the inside lane on the M25. You also have the last minute lane changers going from the middle lane to the exit slip road. All this poor driving does is increase the queues as drivers jockey for position. To top it all you also have to avoid the foreign lorry drivers who are doing the same thing but they do not bother to look before they move. They just pull out and go where they want to with no thought for anyone else on the motorway.
Rubberneckers who slow to a crawl, gawking...
A typical journey will also be slowed down by the rubberneckers who slow to a crawl, gawking at what has happened to some unfortunate driver on their side, or on the other side of the motorway. Why can't they get it into their heads that their journey would be so much quicker and safer if they drove with consideration for the road conditions and avoided the temptation to be nosey rubbernecker?
Finally, what about all those impatient drivers who nip off at an exit because there is a queue in front of them. They then cause a bottleneck on the other side of the interchange as they battle to rejoin the motorway. Is it just me or does this sound like crazy behaviour? I don't know what the solution is to all this but I feel better now!

People make mistakes,Laz. S**t happens.
I only say this because 1 accident I've been in was the result of what I later saw to be a van on car crash, the moronic mindless 27 year old woman caked in make up behind me was on her phone and staring at the accident. I saw this from glancing into my rear view mirror but had nowhere to go as the traffic had stopped. Crunch. When I got out, she stayed put and the police came over. She claimed I reversed into her car. Retard. As far as I know, the police saw it and she was heavily fined, given points and her insurance company didn't try to contest police statements.
So you are saying "what the h*ll does he mean by that" no doubt ... well how many drivers do you know that can drivemore than one car at a time??
If building more roads generates more cars, where do all the drivers come from to drive those extra cars??
If we increase the capacity of the motorways to accommodate the number of drivers who actually use a particular stretch of road, then where will all the other cars come from to fill it up??? End of problem, and no need to crush more cars.
Just crushing cars, and the car "Scrappage" scheme as it is called, generate more polution producing new cars than running older ones longer. Regardless of how "clean" newer engines are.
We should all be driving Hydrogen powered vehicles, and pollution would from cars would be almost non-existant.
At least I think it is in admiration.
Although on the M42 the other week, I witnessed a BMW cut across the chevrons to make the exit, and seconds later a police car that had been cruising behind a lorry put on its lights and shot off after the BMW, leaving all the surrounding drivers with a warm happy feeling in their tummys!
Incorporate road tax into the fuel. Reduce Government fuel Tax at the same time.
Of course I didnt think they built Motorways to attract cars.Easing congestion in the countries By-Ways, how silly of me.
BTW I am also for Hydrogen Cars, Nuclear Plants for electric, as well.
I do apologise "Crush All Cars" rename yourself TROLL.

All building motorways does is attract cars like a swarm of flies. Why do people live in Andover and work in London? It's complete nonsense.
Crush all the cars
bravo
