Had one like that not long ago, had to stand on the brakes and come almost to a stop so he could get in. I felt sorry for the guy in my passenger seat who was asleep and was woken by me slamming on the brakes and his first view was a Mercedes square in front of us! https://youtu.be/1meARlhOJgQ

A massive slip road to aim at, and you missed it. I'm pretty sure that if I hadn't been behind them, then the driver of PO60 ZZG, would have reversed back up the motorway.
https://youtu.be/CWz9-n2Is0s
He probably thought at first that he was moving onto a hard shoulder where he could reverse back. They've done a cheap job of modifying that junction. I think they should have done two proper separate exits like where you go onto the M61 from the southbound carriageway. Most major motorway junctions are like that. This M55 junction just encourages a nasty last second scramble and conflict with those who've got into the inside lane sooner but then try to take the second lane on the extended sliproad.https://youtu.be/CWz9-n2Is0s
You have miles and plenty of warning that the split (and it is a split rather than an exit) is coming and anyone who even thinks it's EVER acceptable to pull onto a hard shoulder and reverse should be banned from driving instantly !
Ok, I know you did not suggest it !
Thing is, it's not a slip road. Bit like the m6 m5. Get in the correct lane, no problem. Miss it, then whatever you do, don't make a panicked reaction, ever. Just keep on going and reroute.
This driver was dangerous.

The road design would work fine if people used it sensibly. As is often the way on the road, people don't use it sensibly and the kind of clash I've described seems to happen quite frequently. I use the junction once or twice a week and see it happen often.

The riders bike (in this clip) hit another biker going the other way on the opposite carriageway killing him.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tt9gY7b3ZBQ

Angrydashcamman has a new video and near the start with the bike he visits York, didn't catch me though
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9q0-cbXuXI&fe...
I'm struggling to see why 4:30 offended him quite so much, van gets wrong lane, indicates and changes lanes, brakes slightly in the process.
However, at 1:50 I'd have been pissed by that, in fact he was surprisingly calm.
Do you ever watch videos like this one and just think the world would be a better place if this fella didn't exist? I would almost rejoice.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9q0-cbXuXI&fe...

A distinct lack of talent. The following bike made a much better job of the bend by aiming for the inside/apex before getting on the gas. The unfortunate victim (of his own stupidity) just opened the throttle whilst in the outside lane and by the time he realised the mistake there was no room to correct it and a rather solid barrier to contend with. This is Darwinism in action except I feel a bit sorry for the motorists on the opposite carriageway who had to deal with a flying motorcycle and rider!Blakewater said:

Not a problem with the layout, it's people. Divers will always leave it to the last minute and cut across whatever the design. I see less problems here than at the m6 to m61 junction down the road.

I've had something similar happen to me years ago. NSL duel carriageway and a chap is turning right from a side road. It was tight but no need to slow down, then the car behind him comes out because he's on the end of a tow rope. The poor chaps face was a picture as I was heading straight for his door, how I didn't t bone him at 70mph I will never know.Have we had this one yet?
Not bad driving as such but scary stuff, look how close he gets to the first telegraph pole...

Bloody hell! That could have been a lot worse though, I thought he was going to roll back up onto the road at one point.Not bad driving as such but scary stuff, look how close he gets to the first telegraph pole...
