Fury as ‘ridiculous’ speed limit change sparks mayhem on Britain’s busiest motorway – & is set to last another 12 WEEKS

RESIDENTS are furious over a “ridiculous” speed limit that has sparked chaos on Britain’s busiest motorway.

The restriction was brought in to add an emergency area in April but, despite them being completed, the limit might remain for up to 12 weeks.
