Perhaps middle-aged blokes SHOULDN'T try 34-hour-long road trips

Re: Traffic Management

Just to note that to the best of my memory, when travelling on the M25 clockwise between the A1M and the M11 there are a number of hills where a new fourth lane opens on the right hand side, and then at the top of the hill the slow lane merges into the next one across.

This seems to work, because lanes 1 & 2 seem to be travelling at roughly the same speed whilst lane 4 is full of mad buggers going hell for leather nose to tail and not wanting to slow down for anyone.

In effect it releases a bunch of pent up speed freaks to charge on ahead and lets those of a more sedate nature politely sort things out amongst themselves.
