Matrix sign head west, going to cause a pile up.
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 3680157.
Hi, every evening Monday to Friday, your Matrix signs leading up to the one just after Jct11 read 60 or 50mph due to alleged traffic at Jct10. Then without warning whilst cars are all grouped up under taking and now seemingly speed because the one at Jct10 is now reading 40mph that just so happens to have a camera on.
This in itself is going to cause an accident.
I know they're there to help stop congestion and allegedly increase safety. The time I'm travelling 8.30pm onwards the signs themselves are causing the congestion and bunching everyone up dangerously at a time recently as sun is setting too.
You can tell the amount who spot the speed limit change by just how many times it's flashes people.
How is anyone supposed to spot a limit change with so much bunching and under taking with lanes splitting off for the M6 and continuation of the M62?
You should be able to see with all the live cameras use have the effects and dangers every evening.
Unless use sit there rubbing your hands together at all the speeding fines!

No-one is interested in making traffic flow, perish the thought! Nope, its all about revenue streams from the great British public, as usual....
