cars on the B3267,
Between the A30 & the M5 was slow but quite steady except for a 45
minute wait near Treewint where 5 AA vans were blocking the road
removing a 20 car accident, even one of the AA vans had broken down.
We started on the motorway quite well doing almost 95mph for the first
few miles, only saw one accident & that was in the rear view mirror.
But after a few miles we slowed down to 20mph or less, this was made
worse by the broken down cars in the fast lane, but we managed to pass
the first couple of jams using the hard shoulder (there were a few
cars on it but we pulled out past them).
Then we dropped to a crawl...

So Doug, do you avoid travelling *at all*. Do you sit at home all day,
not leaving the confines of your home. Or do you travel by bike,
train, bus etc.
Do you rely on other people travelling to supply your food,
electricity etc.
Dougworld, where no one is allowed to travel anywhere (except
Dougtard), and food magically moves itself from the fields to the
shops, and then onto peoples homes.
