Luckily I've only been stopped once by a traffic survey, and when I was it was not that hot, nor was there a queue worth talking about..

And from their point of view, absolutely completely unhelpful.

Q Purpose of journey?
A To buy the car on my trailer

Q How often do you use this road?
A Other than today, I don't.

And a few other questions that would have been answered by a re-iteration of the former. But as the survey was a checklist - were of course asked.
