"The agency said the controlled system would reduce the level of
stop-start traffic that leads to congestion."

Shooting the tail-gating panic-braking cunts would be far more
effective.

I'm probably not the best target as I'll ignore it but thinking it through,
for cages, the plan is sound. During periods of traffic congestion it might
be useful. I'd just like to tweak the software though so that as the road
gets quiet it shows *advisory* limits. 70. 80. 90. 120. 160. 180. mph.

With summary execution in the hard shoulder for people using the wrong lane
and HGV's that don't stay in lane 1.

Indeed. It's the one section of the M1 I hardly ever use as I'll
almost always join at 28 or 24a depending on which way I'm headed.

Works brilliantly on the M42. I even get my own lane on the left
because no-one else wants it.

Not on the Gatwick/Leatherhead section on Monday. 3 mile car park ...

Maybe the VSL needs extending ...
