        I believe a tourist once managed that on the M25. Apparently the idea of a looping motorway can be a bit beyond some.

        While London traffic can be frustrating, it’s not actually that bad. At least compared to a lot of American cities, let alone somewhere like Mexico city.

          Well that’s wild, we have looping highways in the states too. No cure for stupid, I guess

            And most anywhere else in the world that they’re geographically practical.

            Even Charlotte merits one. And Pittsburgh. And basically the entire country of Afghanistan, which is kind of interesting in and of itself.

            Not all are “highway” standard, but the concept is kind of universal.

              To be fair, smaller cities only have them because they never invested in public transportation. Stockholm doesn’t have a complete ring yet, and probably never will.

          Or you know, Rome.

          When I went there I discovered that Mario Kart was a documentary. I have never been carsick until I flew South America to rome, then got into a shuttle to my hotel.

        Sometimes it’s faster to walk. And it’s not a joke.

          Saw an old episode of Top Gear where they raced from one side of London to the other. 1 user by car, 1 bike, 1 public transit, and finally a boat. Bicycle arrived first, then the boat, 3rd the public transit and lastly the car. That’s a bit telling haha
