My youngest has just moved to near Bridgwater.....I’ve lost the will to live many times the last few weekends sat on the M5 southbound from jn19 - jn24 (and back again!) only to discover the cause of the “ hold-up” to be the queue to get into Sedgemoor services, and a car boot sale in a field adjacent to the motorway (well, you’ve got to slow down for a good look haven’t you?😉😠😠)

London is not always the worst for traffic.

Last time I was in Edinburgh it took us 2 hours to travel the 3/4 mile from Princes Street to our Hotel.

Two weeks ago it took us 1 hour to travel the last 3/4 mile home when some southern self mutilator crashed his truck on the M6 and caused mayhem all over the North West.

Guess what another plonker did the same again yesterday.

I have just spent a week in Poole. It is 110 miles from where I live and the journey there took4.5 hours. The journey back today via the A31 and M27 took 3.5 hours. There were miles of very slow moving traffic, no accidents just volume of traffic which makes me reluctant to make such journeys

I was born down there. Every year the traffic gets worse when I go to visit family. Earlier this year I struggled to get over 25mph driving down there for a few days. And in the summer it is just terrible. It seems to have reached a tipping point where driving around the Poole/Bournemouth area is a very tedious process.
