    Always take the right hand tunnel. Less congestion

    Good boy, accurate. The M25 does not encircle London. The A282 is the Tunnel/QE2 Bridge section.

    I used to do this route over to Lakeside back in the day when I lived in Sidcup. It’s still a bloody nightmare!!

      I’m drove from Kent to Essex for almost a year back in 1998 working for HMRC in Southend. It was a nightmare even then. Catching it at the right time is key 👍

    Being Canadian, I truly enjoyed watching this video, the round-a-bout is so well designed, feeling giddy as I watch driving on left side of roads, the one-way's were more easily understandable to me were I able to travel and need to drive in the UK, but oh boy the brain does a flip flop at some intersections. This was a fun video ! Thank you for making this :)

      I get that same feeling driving in Europe. It’s weird driving on the opposite side of the road 🤣

      I remember having to go through there when I went down to Margate and paying for the ticket on my phone in the queue - what a faff that was 🤣

    We usually go in the right hand tunnel

      It always seems quicker to me. I was heading to Thurrock so it seemed easier to stay in the left tunnel 👍

    My local resident's account was renewed TWICE and they happily took the money TWICE and I had another £10 in my account which I put in there because i tried to re validate my card. They took another £4 out of my account, claiming that my account was not approved. 127 people ahead of me in the queue on the phone. The woman who tried to sort it out last time on the phone was from Leeds. So local people get highway robbed by people whp do not live locally. This is more than scandalous!!! I want my money back!

      I’ve heard the saying “stealth tax” but your case sounds ridiculous - like no one actually cares enough to sort it out.

    The tunnels safer when it’s windy

    • @drivewithcare_uk
      @drivewithcare_uk  Před 6 měsíci

      Do they make one of the tunnels the Essex-Kent route in windy weather?

      @drivewithcare_uk  Před 8 měsíci

      It's old now! The new Medway tunnel will maybe ease the traffic?

      @drivewithcare_uk Just one more lane will fix it all! lol! Seems urban planners here have not worked out that driving in dense areas is stupid.

    • @danielnesbitt9565
      @danielnesbitt9565 Před 2 měsíci

      100% agree. This tunnel reminds me of the 60s Tyne Tunnel before it's rebuild, and that was considered very unsafe before it.

    Err, you can't smell Carbon Monoxide, it's odourless and tasteless.
