Do You Ever

[TWR]

Plan / know an alternative route's should anything happen on the UK Motorways that "could" hold you up for hours?

[Zacs-Master]

Not really. If you're on a long journey, keeping all the possible alternatives in your head would be difficult. Unless it's a major holdup it's often quicker to sit it out.

i`d consider it - I know my way around Kent / Folkestone / Dover so we get to the family or ferry without significant delay

[rockyracoon]

Nope, that's what map books are for. Obviously, if we know beforehand then we'll arrange the route accordingly.

Never, I like to think on my feet...it keeps me on my toes.

[Hymie]

Yes, for my daily commute to and from work I can take the most direct route which involves a motorway, or take a slightly longer back-road.

Both before leaving in the morning and returning in the evening, I check the motorway traffic flow on-line. Even so, I have been caught out a few times by accidents which occurred after I had commenced my journey.

[spudqueen]

Yes I do. We live in the north west, in-laws in the cotswolds, so I have found a few alternative routes over the years for when the M6 is snarled up.
