Otherwise you'll end up at best in Manchester airport or, if you're unlucky, under a truck.
You're a natural blonde, aren't you?

Lorries drag race in lanes one, two and three. Vans and 3 tonners slow cars right down in lane 4, when cars race at the top and crash – as happened again this morning.
They should keep ALL lorries in lane 1, and vans in lane 2, leaving lanes 3 and 4 for cars.

Even when I get my MX5 fixed I don’t think I am going to brave the 62 – too many lorries and vans for my liking.
You want to try the M4!
The M40 is one of the most relaxed motorways I have ever driven down....

Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostWas on the M60 on Friday getting home – was stuck behind a co-operative hearse in the fast lane doing the mid 80’s, wobbling all over the shop and nearly hitting the central reservation.
Initially I thought it was stolen, until I saw the driver – looking like a hearse driver, obviously just running late.
I think we have the answer here
