I thought I'd seen it all until yesterday when I was already running late thanks to a series of roadworks all the way up the A46. Just when I start to make up a bit of time, I get to the mother of all queues and wind up sat there for 25
minutes. The reason? A set of traffic lights at some roadworks - though with a difference. At these lights you have to be escorted at walking pace by a van with flashing lights until you're out the other end. Then he takes a painstakingly large amount of time to turn around and come back with a load of cars from the other direction, at snail's pace. This goes on until eventually it's your turn. WTF???
