Google 'The Day Britain Stopped' - ficticious, but it wouldn't take much for the whole lot to fall over!!

We have just returned from Hampshire and the M25 anticlockwise was a complete nightmare, luckily for us we were going in the opposite direction. I agree with sat nav directing you to the motorway, found that a problem the first time we went to France.

When we used to have the Oracle on ITV we had the circle around for the M25 showing all problems around and about. Different colour shading was for all forms of traffic news whether heavy, jammed or weather snow. A quick look before going out could save us a traffic jam and being caught up in it and so go another way. Junction 8 is where we are on it.
Jnt. 4-5 is roadworks but they then get longer as the traffic builds up on them it was at jnt 6 when we used it last.

Used to be quicker (if you knew the roads and pre sat-nav) to go through London but the congestion zone stuffed that!

OMG, your going back a few years with Oracle on ITV.
I like the idea of the M25 being gridlocked from start to finish! I think the only chance of that happening is if half the population all decide to travel to the south by car on the same day, but I would hope that the Highways Agency would do something to avert a situation like that!
