Between Northampton and the M40...why oh why are there 2 roundabouts that have a 3 lane approach and instantly go to 2 lanes when you get on them?

And why are there so many idiots with caravans who speed up when you go to overtake? The A43 needs to become a motorway.

Funny you says this - I travelled on the A43 and complained about this to my colleague on Thursday.

Also the system of roundabouts at the M40 which causes A43 southbound traffic to block northbound traffic on the northernmost roundabout. How was this plan passed unless it is intentional to cause traffic jams on the M40 northbound?!

Travel the length of that one a fair bit. They can be annoying in the wrong car because as soon as you get up to speed you have to lose it all again. However, when I got a Puma that road sudddenly became the best part of the trip to Southampton .
