00:00When it comes to our road network here in the UK, not all roads are created equal. With
00:07the number of potholes reported on the rise, an increase in road traffic accident figures
00:11and an ever-growing motoring population causing greater levels of congestion, driving from
00:16A to B can sometimes be a bit of a nightmare. Independent motoring watchdog Transport Focus
00:21has revealed their list of the very best and the very worst motorways in the country according
00:25to Driver Satisfaction. Does your local make the list?
00:29When it comes to drivers' least favourite, they rated the M42 as the worst motorway in
00:32the UK, scoring a very low 56% overall satisfaction. On the other hand, drivers have a much better
00:39time travelling on the M40, giving that motorway a 79% approval rating.
00:44Despite sitting at the top of the league table though, satisfaction with the M40 has dropped
00:48since last year's score of 81%, but it still did nab the top spots from the M5, which was
00:53the king of the roads last year, and is now in fourth place, just behind the M4 in third.
00:58But what about your score? How do you find driving on the UK's road network?
