Anyone got any horror traffic stories for today?
After reading that i'm stopping at home and keeping well out of it.

I've just been to the shop and you'd think a nuke had been set off.
I saw 2 cars.

Easter shocker; first holiday traffic jams of year. Yawn
|
I drove from hampshire to the midlands on Good Friday afternoon, expecting to get stuck everywhere and listening to appeals from the RAC/AA not to travel as the traffic would be awful.
By the time I got to the M42, local radio had cancelled their traffic reports in favour of just asking people where on earth the traffic was - I was the only car for a large part of the journey.

To paraphrase a famous saying:
"No-one drives on the roads anymore, because they are too crowded"

A 81mile dash to get to a meeting on Thursday evening. Yes I made it no thanks to queues of cars on M-ways but thanks to Sat Nav, very minor roads and nothing for tea !

I think it was a peer of the realm who said. : - Only a fool leaves his grounds on a Bank Holiday.
About right!

Just driven back this afternoon from the Suffolk coast to Wiltshire - A12/M25/M4. Was expecting things to be horrendous, especially the M25 West section and the M4 around Reading but nothing.

Watching a program on Sky at the mo. called the top 50 worst predictions,, maybe this story should be on there.
or maybe no-ones posted 'cos they're all stuck in a jam?

I got stuck in jam on the A550 - took over an hour to do a 20 minute maximum journey (and that 20 mins is on a bad day). Caravan, after caravan, after caravan, complete nightmare - all I wanted was to buy some new material for my bedroom curtains and got stuck behind one of those stuck in the 60's tin boxes. Yes, I hate caravans!!!!!
