    Anyone have the displeasure of traveling the M50 yesterday? On the Northern Cross the amount of surface water and spray was comically rediculous and in fact dangerous. Could not see more then a few feet in front at times. The suface water literally reflecting the grey sky. This is a new road - how did they allow this to happen? It was crazy. The water is not draining properly and the rain was not particularly heavy. God knows how many accidents there would have been were it not a bank holiday.


    The frustration was added to of course by all those expensive gantries with no traffic management on them at all. That's why they were put there in the first place. What a country...

    And 90% of the drivers on it in that muck hadn't the cop on to switch their lights on. Madness.
