As a foreigner, I will say: Your motorways are a nice drive, truly excellent, but London red route in rush hour? Woof.

Driving in London at all has been pretty woof for many years in my experience.

Meanwhile, driving in villages and the country is mostly playing Russian roulette with potholes.

I have no desire to drive in London...rush hour or not.

The worse traffic I was ever in was around 8? years ago in Los Angeles. It was 10:30 at night and Rush Hour was still going on. It took me 2.5 to 3 hours to traverse that area on my way to Disneyland. I've been to Disneyland since but I've never driven in Los Angeles again. I always hire another driver to drive me around. 3 hours in the middle of the night to go a few miles...awful.

The Craziest Traffic has to be in Asia. In some parts of India and Asia I think the people feel the traffic laws are more of...suggestions? rather than anything else.

As far as the country/rural areas go of the UK (and Ireland)...regardless of what you think of the state of the roads...at least the drivers are more civilized than those two places above.
