there should be an amnesty for a first offence
if you haven't had points in, say, 5 years then you just get a caution.

i would say that i've only been pulled for speeding once in 18 years of regular speeding, and even they let me off at about 98mph because i cried, but i have to drive to cheshire this weekend and that's tempting fate to give me a big speed gun or a mahoosive m6 traffic jam.

fucking m6. it sucks donkey balls.

On the M6 north of Birmingham 65 is about as fast as you can go anyway
Best stick to inside/middle lanes, get some decent music on and chill whilst watching the Audi/VW Passat drivers in the fast lane braking every 30 seconds and not getting anywhere faster than you.

i can get off from about junction 14 even though 17/18 are much nearer
ridiculously it's often quicker to get off 4 junctions early than to use the motorway. that's how stupid the m6 is. very.

The Staffs/Cheshire bit from 20 to about 13/12 has the worst standard of m/way driving ever
and that includes the M5.

None of them know how to join or leave without fucking the traffic flow up, they all drive way too close and don't know which lane to be in, so you get a queue at every junction for no apparent reason. Cunts the lot of them.

Is this because you are still scared of driving on them?

No, it's because it's fucking dull.

drop a trail of mung beans up the middle lane

Silly rachel, a mung bean is not a lentil.

there are also too many exits

nuking stoke is just common sense

I travel on the m6 all the time
And its no worse than any other motorway... you just need to know what times to travel and work round that
