Apparently they have never been as bad, in history as they are today.

This is how they were at 1730 - the reds are delays.

Crash closed down M6 southbound between 2 & 3 earlier today, 6 vehicles invloved apparently. Took me 2 hours to get home, when it usually takes 30 minutes.

The M40 was fail today. Well, the drivers on it who all managed to crash into each other were. I drove past over 20 crashed cars near High Wycombe. The only conclusion were that the idiots all decided not to slow down during the thunderstorm and they all hit each other making a massive mess

there have been 4 accidents in the Wirral area in the last week.

People arent paying attention, and as i have been working on peoples cars i have been taking glances at the tyres and the amount of people driving around on cheap, old or just generally crap tyres is shocking. Mixed with the amount of water on the road lately...thats bloody why!

Left liverpool yesterday at 17:15 and got into Kent at 23:40. Not so bad considering really. Took two hours longer, okay maybe not as good as it could have been.
