M6 Lorry Fire: A Pattern of Inefficiency on Britain's Motorways A recent lorry fire on the M6 in Birmingham has sparked concerns about the safety and efficiency of Britain's motorway network.
The incident, which caused significant delays and lane closures, is just one of several similar incidents that have raised questions about the vulnerability of Britain's motorway system to disruptions.
The closure of three out of four lanes on the M6 northbound between junctions four and six in Birmingham resulted in substantial delays for thousands of motorists.
