What should I do?
Everyday when I go home from work I have to endure one of the worst designed junctions in this country. I am referring to the cross roads of the M5, M4 and A38 in North Bristol.
To those who are not familiar with this appalling piece of modern highway design please look at it from the air via google maps to see what I mean.

All the vehicles that leaves the A38 to get on the M5 North needs to go across two lanes of the M4 East slip road, and the same if one is going off the M5 to the A38 south and have to cross the two lanes M4 slip road into the M5 South.
I've counted an accident every day of this week during rush hour and I saw untold misery to the people involved and the people who try to get on their way home/work.
The only other place I know of in the world where motorway exits goes across the entrance to the same motorway is South Africa and the infamous Concrete Highway of Jb'rg (the ring road).
I wrote to my MP in the past but nothing was done about it, is there another way I can get this road to be made safer? I see so many traffic control devices such as cameras etc' in places where there is hardly any problem but in such a bad spot there is no warnings what's so ever.
