Reply to: Stuck on the M1

The M5 was closed in the end.

And yet here it is fine, we've hardly got any snow ffs.

I know, it's pretty bad here. I will gladly swap you, I hate it. Am snowed in and not loving it.

Sounds like they took a shortcut through Walsall.

The M5 doesn't sound good either, in the Midlands. The news reporter used words such as 'carnage', 'terrifying' and 'never so frightened'.

M25 Surrey, anti-clockwise between A317 [M25 junction 11] and A3 [M25 junction 10]
M25 Surrey - Three lanes closed on M25 anticlockwise between J11, A317 (Chertsey) and J10, A3 (Wisley Interchange), because of a jackknifed lorry.

Could get busy near the M40 junction, if people are still trying to get on it, as the M40 is snafued:

M40 Buckinghamshire, northbound between M25 [M40 junction 1A] and A361 [M40 junction 11]
M40 Buckinghamshire - Severe delays on M40 northbound between J1a, M25 (Buckinghamshire) and J11, A361 (Banbury, Oxfordshire), because of snow.

Severe

And then on the M23 near Gatwick:

M23 West Sussex, northbound at M23 [M23 junction 9]
M23 West Sussex - One lane blocked on M23 northbound at J9, M23 (Gatwick Airport), because of a broken down vehicle.

So many potential responses; so little time.

So that's where MF's sledge supply is coming from. Shame on you MF.

Bloody kids. Some of them really hang on hard when you're shaking it!!!

Hurrah! We've passed the jack-knifed lorries and are now onto level 2 (M25)

Some real arseholes driving though.

Good news. Stay safe.

I'd never thought I'd say this:

"Hurrah for driving on the M25".

Unfortunately it seems you're right.
One of my sons friends has not more than 20 minutes ago, had someone stop their car, pick up his sledge that was on the grass verge by the edge of the road and drive off with it!

My sons friend wasn't particularly close to it at the time and so was unable to do anything.

wtf is wrong with people ?

At least they drove off with the sledge only, but sorry to hear that anyway.
