M6 mayhem in Stoke-on-Trent

The M6, NCP's best car park. When is the Government going to pull its finger out and widen the road in Staffordshire and Cheshire?
As soon as those southern wimps cry foul on the M25 it gets widened. We ask for a bit of work in the north and it goes into consultation for a few years.
The road is chaotic, just look at the latest accident yesterday, just an eight car pile-up. And there are so many fatal accidents that the stretch between 14 and 18 has become a cemetery.
Worse offenders are 4x4 drivers who think nothing of driving a yard from your boot while travelling at 90mph.
Add to this the lunatic lorry drivers and no wonder us safe drivers fear using the road which often resembles a scene from Mad Max.
Just a thought, but do lorry drivers want to kill all car drivers? They often speed, block up two of the three lanes and think nothing of pulling out when there's no room.
Then they have the cheek to blame car drivers for their bad drivering. They are the bullies of the road and should be kept out of the way during hours of daylight.
The problem is easy to solve. Ban lorries from the road between 6am and 11pm and lock up all 4x4 drivers.
If you wish to read about the latest carnage on the M6 pop along to The Sentinel...
