The Most Boring of British Roads

We'd like to ask our British readers if they're having trouble with their car insurance companies: it wouldn't surprise us, because they seem to be so busy doing surveys they couldn't possibly process any claims. This week one of these busy companies has brought us the result of the search for the most boring road in Britain.

If you plan a driving holiday through England, the road you should most strongly avoid is the M6 motorway, particularly between Rugby and Carlisle. The boredom largely comes from sitting in traffic jams and the remnants of accidents. Second-most-boring prize went to the A30 between Devon to Cornwall, a delightfully scenic-sounding drive which is apparently quite the opposite, and full only of cars and horns. Avoid these and you can instead concentration on car-sex (in a Volvo, as the Brits prefer) or just thinking about sex: that's what other surveys have proved Brits mostly do in cars.
