Had a nasty surprise last night on the A287 between the A30 and the M3. Nice long straight bit, so I accellerated, ahem, fairly rapidly, then the car started feeling really horrible. I realised there was a fair bit of dust in the air, so I figured it was mud on the road.

Then I noticed the miniscule "danger, loose chippings 20mph" signs. They only started *after* you were well into the affected area. Not a pleasent surprise I can tell you. I was lucky to get away with it I reckon, so please be careful if you're down that way.
