Two-tier road system?
With the announcement that the government are considering pay-as-go lanes on motorways, meaning that the wealthier motorist will be able to pay their way out of a traffic jam. So while you are sat in your Robin Reliant making little progress at 10 mph crawl, some git in a sports car can jump the queue and race off into the distance.
These contraversial plans would include stretches of the M1, M4, M5 and M27 amongst others. a fee of £5 would be levied per queue jump. The extra lanes would be provided by either utilising the existing hard shoulder or widening roads to incorporate more lanes. The government are planning to have this scheme up and running by 2014.
