It is absolutely true - I work on the motorways and it`s great fun

the ones I see are going closer to 56mph than i`ve ever seen before.
Most of my colleagues agree too. I think the fuel price increases are
biting and people are realising that public transport is actually a
viable option for most journeys.
I dunno what percentage of journeys made are strictly speaking
unnecessary, but I'll bet it's high.
It's zero. No-one makes an unecessary journey, ever. The fact that *you*
think their journeys are unecessary is *your* problem.
Ah. Another Humpty Dumpty.
