Bedford Driving Lessons

Birmingham’s ‘Spaghetti Junction’ has been voted Britain’s most intimidating road junction, according to motorists. The Britannia Rescue research revealed that one in twelve motorists (8%) avoid scary junctions, driving on average an extra 238 miles a year on detours to avoid having to use them. Some particularly nervous motorists (2%) even admitted to avoiding taking right turns at all costs, because they are so concerned about their safety. Large cities came under fire generally from anxious drivers, with one in seven (14%) saying they avoided urban driving altogether.
