The next prize numpty was the bloke in a BMW X5 who ignored all the signs in the roadworks which say "Lanes 1&2 M42, Lanes 2 & 3 M5". He then realises he wants the M5 not the M42 and cuts across two lanes of slip road followed by the chevroned area to end up back on the M5.
Thats a regular occurence on the M5 northbound approaching M42 junction-a lot of cagers use lane 3 to overtake slower moving vehicles on the uphill section then find they have to speed up over the so-called 50mph roadworks limit& then have to cut up other vehicles to cross over to lane 1/2 for M42.I see it EVERY time I come along that section.
Good one yesterday coming back from Wales. Mucklow Hill, Halesowen steep uphill 2 lane road 40mph limit with roundabout half way up. Numpty drove the whole hill in outside lane at speed varying from 20-30mph even though NOTHING in lane 1. Approaching 30 mph limit at top of hill he/she speeds up to 35-40! :eek
