I am a commuter. Today was without question the worst day of the year for the thousands like myself, and look at that - it's only January 18th.
And when bad weather ravages the UK ("your land was ravaged?!?") i'm left not surprised, just fuming that as a supposedly intelligent person I can't find a better option than sitting in a queue of traffic.
That said I did eventually break off down a sub-cross-country route. Who knows whether it helped me - didn't take me far off course and got me back to the M1 just north of the blockage, which of course cleared just in time to rob me of that fantastic 'only-car-on-the-motorway' feeling.
45 miles in 2 and a half hours. I'd make a simplistic comment about how unnecessary most commuting is, but I don't think I know enough yet. I do believe things are going to change though. With some of the upcoming "green" proposals, they're going to have to.
