Default Why is there always an accident at Clacket Lane on M25?

Is it just because you know the name well, that whenever anything happens,
it stands out? "Accident near/between Junction X/Y" isn't so memorable.


Traffic reports and signs that blather on about junction numbers annoy
me. I have no idea what junction number is where. I don't even know
what junction number I use to come off the M25 to get home. What the
****'s wrong with using place names?
