Bikers 'fear M25'

Posted : 16-07-2007

The M25 motorway is the most feared road in the country, a new survey has discovered, in news which may interest those looking for motorbike insurance.

According to the research by Bennetts, the orbital motorway encircling London is the most nightmarish for riders, possibly due to its constant volume of heavy traffic.

Topping the poll, the M25 - which also links with the Dartford Crossing - was followed by other congestion-prone roads such as the M6 and M5.

Although many motorways in Britain now have illuminated signage warning drivers of traffic hotspots or upcoming diversions, peak hours can be notorious for extending a journey's length.

Riders who are nervous about certain roads might find they benefit from checking their motorbike insurance policy to get a good idea of what they are covered for, as this could prove handy should a claim need to be made.

In addition, ensuring they have adequate protective clothing could also minimise injury in the event of any bumps or scrapes.
