cars-at-night-cropped.jpgHow frightening is London’s Hanger Lane Gyratory System? It’s just been named the the junction most feared by motorists in a survey.

The junction, a complex roundabout system linking the A40, the North Circular A406 and Hanger Lane, was rated by 28 percent of drivers as the one they were most worried about negotiating.

Birmingham’s Spaghetti Junction (26 percent) and Marble Arch in central London (25 percent) were the next most frightening, according to the survey of 500 motorists by insurer, Highway Insurance.

I actually thought that roundabout was OK when I used to live in London - I thought Marble Arch was much worse.

Swiss cottage roundabout in North London is 20 times as dangerous as Hanger lane.
