To be fair, getting much speed up on the M8 (particularly around Glasgow) can be quite a challenge. Yesterday, I averaged about 15-20mph between the Kingston bridge and Springburn (thats J21 to J15 for anyone looking at the map). I can think of a few occasions where breakdowns/accidents have occurred in live lanes recently but it slows the entire traffic (usually both sides) to a complete crawl during peak hours such that the risk of further collisions is really down to rear end shunts for those not paying attention to the queue ahead, in my very unqualified opinion. Still amazes me just how many people drive straight through red Xs though.michael769 wrote:One thing I would say is that the M8 in Glasgow lost it's hard shoulders at the end of the 1980s. Despite being one of Europe's busiest sections of road, and lacking the extra support that MMs have, casualty rates are not significantly higher than other motorways.
