Aye
It never expands to its full width.

You should put an elastic band around one end
and give it a shake.

I have an M25
It's impressive in width but sadly never really keeps going and is always getting bunged up, I think I'm just going round in circles with it really. It looks pretty from above though.

by comparison
my M5 is rather long, and really quite useful

It's funny isn't it
the M5 really is one of the better motorways in the country. And it doesn't go anywhere near London.

the surface of it is shockingly bad down here
at some point in the last 10 years someone decided that absurd amounts of water lying on the surface of the motorway is fun and safe for all.

For fucks sake
do you really want to live in your cosy little cotton wool world with no sense of risk or danger? My mrs told me off the other day for driving too quickly in my car, yet she's perfectly happy to drive fast in hers just because it's got brakes that work and crumple zones and seatbelts. Some people are just unreasonable.

being completely unable to see for a good 5 seconds or more when driving past a lorry at 80 mph
isn't much fun. Risk and danger are all very well, but there is a limit.

So you're boring as well as smug.
