I joined a queue on the M4 at the last PortTalbot junction eastbound today at about 1pm. After about 5 minutes around 30 or 40 vehicles turned around and went back up the motorway the wrong way and up the slip road. After 20 mins the road cleared but there was still a queue going up the slip road, in the wrong direction, as cars were trying to come down the slip road the right way.
The guy next to me was filming from the passenger seat and showed me his police id card, shaking his head in disbelief.
Why can't people wait for 15 or 20 minutes instead of threatening people's lives? [Post edited 11 Nov 2018 20:21]

I came across some idiot reversing on the mumbles road as they missed the junction for Sketty lane.
It's absolutely mental out there. |  |

I must have missed that part of the driving test; reversing into a stream of oncoming traffic! | |

The 30 or 40 clowns, obviously think they are far too important to be waiting in a queue, with the rest of you mere mortals.
Hopefully they will receive the necessary penalty notices.
There's enough accidents on the M4 without that sort of nonsense going on.
Idiots. |  | | |

Unmarked sherif car perhaps |  |

Essex Police has something similar happen up there a few weeks ago and they are going to prosecute the offenders.

Agreed. Traffic is getting worse, we have more cars on the road doing more miles than ever. The new relief road has a lower speed limit and takes longer, so where is the incentive for people to use it?
Public transport is expensive and can be unreliable, if you want to catch a train at Port Talbot it’s a £5er for parking before you have bought your train ticket, surely the cost of the parking ticket should be reimbursed in the price of the train ticket. It’s all geared up for ripping people off. | | | |

They could have been involved in some sort of life or death chase scenario stylee involving spies, nuclear bomb detonation prevention and/or saving the world type stuff. Could be? You never know wtf? |  |

Use the council car park opposite the station (round the back of it)it’s £3 a day
The new relief road is substantially quicker most weekdays between 4 and 6
Outside of that though the roads are getting worse but that is part driven by the fact that the standard of driving is going downhill especially on motorways where a large proportion of drivers don’t know the basic rules to which they should operate or have any sense of anticipation |  | | |

I was coming off the M4 at Llangyfelach a few months ago.
A car was coming down the slipway heading towards me and towards the oncoming traffic on the motorway.
I flashed my lights and sounded my horn. A woman with kids in the back, she stopped and opened her window. I explained she was heading onto the M4 the wrong way.
She snapped irritably , " Oh, so I took a wrong turn, big deal."
I snapped back, " Carry on then."
She was actually annoyed that I'd flashed my lights at her and corrected her. |  | | |

Why do we have to share our roads with people this stupid? With kids in too? A few months ago a polish bloke, I think, was stopped on the m4 by Cardiff at 2am going the wrong way, 3 kids in the car, no car seats, and he was over the limit. I despair | |

It will probably take a long time but I think it's all part of the ongoing natural selection process. |  | | |

Aye, but BMW drivers think they have different rights to everyone else on the road, bit like bus drivers, taxi drivers, etc. |  | | |

Yep - and the aptly named "undertakers", tailgaters and morons who cut in a few yards after overtaking. | | | |

Thing is with a load of lorries hogging the inside or deciding to take forphuuuuckingever to overtake another one, the outside full of lunatics who think they are busy and in a rush and going 80 will get them there so much sooner than 70, you are almost stuck in the middle, less you venture wide only to find a bmw with c nut of huge proportion somehow there almost instantly. | |
