Default 1 for the drivers this morning...

Right, I seem to travle alot up n down the M1 & its not always traffic free/the a$$hole Micra driver who dont want to leave the fast lane to give others way & wants us to under take I come from London to Huddersfield but once I took a root which da Copilot made me get off the M1 & hit one/some of the A roots which felt like I had taken a short cut now ever since that day I cant seem to find that root no more

Who knows the fastest root off the M1 to the postcode HD1 area ???

Come on, lets see who gets this one right

Try RAC route finder, and choose the quickest / shortest journey options.

Also, Im someone that is well known for poor spelling / grammer but ........ its "route" not "root"

And its "lane 3" or the "outside" lane..... Not the fast lane

Cant see it taking you far from the A1M or the A5 if you are coming off the M1... Unless you used the M25 too. Then it would depend on which part of London you were heading to. A10 is a possibility if the M25 or A406 were used.

Just realised my route was in the wrong direction

*note to self..... learn to read

I'll have a go seeing as I'm local!

Exit M1 North at Junction 38, take the A637 through West Bretton. At the roundabout stay on the A637 signposted Huddersfield. Follow this to the next roundabout at Grange Moor. Take the first left onto the A642 again signposted Huddersfield. Follow this road until you get to the junction with the A629 at Waterloo. Follow the A629 straight into town and HD1. Watch out for the 5 million speed cameras that appear to have sprung up overnight.

What do I win?

Was the Micra driver overtaking another car, was he doing 70 mph, and how much over the speed limit did you actually want to drive at?

All wrong of course to stay in the outer lane if not overtaking, even at 70mph.
