Angry roads

[Chloevonsnowy]

Any thoughts on Britain's most infuriating roads?

North Circular for me.

Is this info likely to be used in a documentary?

I had an argument with a road once - the road won. Moral of story; don't argue with roads, especially angry ones!

M54! Concrete road surface, dual carriageway, loads of long inclines and HGV's providing a rolling road block at 56 MPH while they attempt to overtake each other.

A339 between Basingstoke & Newbury. A lovely fast, flowing road that you can make real progress along. Unfortunately, 9/10 times, you end up trundling along at 35mph behind lorries / old people / Picasso's etc. Bloody mind bending

Yep that's a nice one @ 4am.

The A350. There's an entertaining section of 90 degree turns but the road's nearly always congested and there are a lot of parts that seem to encourage holdups and delays.

I was bored that day and did some research... something the OP doesn't seem to want to put much effort into

Anytime I head towards the A14/M6 junction/cross roads/whatever the chuff its called that in this day and age shouldn't exist.

A9 between Perth and Inverness.

A12 through Essex/Suffolk - awful concrete surface for much of it, feels like a suicidal rat run in the dark with bullying essex boys in the outside lane and dawdling 50mph-ers in the inside.

The road that passes through dairynook in Oldham. Claimed 3 of my wheels the pop holes are that bad. Used to drive it every day. Think it's been reserved now thought

MUST not comment....

I am surprised no one has mentioned the M25 yet. Take your pick as to which section - it's pretty bad all the way round.

I have to disagree, the NE section is now pretty good in fact it was quite charming on Sunday afternoon.

Those bloody stupid rond abouts in Swindon

[kiteless]

From years of experience, the M6 N & S between 10A and the Catthorpe Interchange is - for the most part - nauseatingly vile with no redeeming features whatsoever.

Apart from sweeping vistas of Walsall, Wednesbury, and Aston, endless queues, and accidents (if those things flick your switch). Which, personally, I'm not overly keen on.

I'd never describe the M25 as charming!!!!

It certainly wasn't 'angry' - traffic was light, weather was good, no roadworks or hold ups, couldn't have been better.
