Fine. On the one hand there is apparently extensive modelling and evidence from crashes to support the change. On the other hand there are those complaining that a drive through this section will take an extra 30 seconds under ideal conditions with this change. On the other other hand there are thos...

Re: M1 South-Eastern Freeway

Clearly what is needed is a grid of several hundred high speed raise bollards laid out across the intersection. Usually down, they will be under the control of an AI monitoring system which on detecting an out of control truck will raise the necessary bollards to bring the runaway vehicle to a stop....
