Scary Roads

[Miss Demeanour]

So are there roads or junctions that you would actively avoid because of the complexity  / madness of them all.

Avoid them? Never, I went to Swindon just to try the magic r/bout 

That is just mad

I had to do a sketch plan of the magic roundabout once

What had you done that needed such severe punishment 

[Barman]

[GROWLER]

Yes, a bit scary, no challenging p'raps, cus this can happen.

Antwerp Ring Road can get a bit hairy during the rush hour ~ which seems to be between 0800 and 1300 and again from 1500 to 2000 Monday to Friday.
I have always found it best to hit it during the truckers 2 hour lunch break.

The Mexico City ring road is bad 

Not just because they are crap drivers but also because young Mexicans use it for the purposes of having sex WHILST DRIVING

The M4 this morning was pretty grim, what with the spray and standing puddles. Or so Mrs TMRBB tells me, I was fast asleep in the passengers seat...

I can honestly say that yesterday I ended up probably the most scared I'd ever been in my life. Mrs JOM was navigating and said, "Ooh, we could go that way on that white road on the map, bound to be some nice views". So off we went, ignoring the A and B roads, through the Wrynose pass and on to the Hardknot pass. Now the warning was there for me and others to see at the start of the second pass "road suitable for light vehicles and cars only. Unsuitable for all vehicles in winter conditions", but on I went, up to fourth gear, then down to third, then second and as the 90 degree and 170 degree bends came along, down into first for the last 600m or so on the 1:3 sections. I was gripping the steering wheel as hard as I could, I was revving the bollocks off the car scared of it stalling, but fortunately my worst nightmare didn't come, a car coming the other way

Never ever again

This bloke did a video of it on his Harley [/url] , it doesn't really show the sheer drops to the side and behind you on the bends, but gives an idea of how bad it is. If you don't like bikes or roads, enjoy the scenery
