to think the Hanger Lane Gyratory system is not the worst junction in Britain?

Apparently it is. This is the list. Imo Marble Arch is worse. Hanger Lane is pretty easy - just follow the signs. Never understood the fuss about it.

Oh you are making me miss the magic roundabout! I worked in Swindon years ago and used to drive a minibus full of delinquent teens across it at least 6 times a day, never once saw an accident or a major traffic jam. Now Bruce Street Bridges on the other hand, (4 full size, 3 lane roundabouts in a diamond shape with railway bridge supports obscuring your view), that would get my vote as a scary junction.

Leeds ring road isn't scary as such, just crap directions (sometimes). Defo doesn't deserve to be in the top 10. There is also the junction from Boston Manor out onto the A4 - if you want to go right you just have to take your life in your hands and GO across 8 lanes of traffic- there is no filter

The A46 and M40 junction ( on the link of junctions)has been changed - it wasn't that is was a bad island - it was just the volume of traffic could have you queing for an hour if you went that way by mistake.
