some stupidly short-sighted decisions were taken up to the 1970s.

Some might say failing to build Ringways 1-4 was one of those!

Certainly not! I never knew you were such a petrolhead.

I'm not a petrolhead as such, but sometimes private cars are the
least worst way to empower the requisite number of journeys.

In London? Are you mad??!!

No. Avoiding London, which is what the Ringways were for.

I'm not sure you can say with a straight face that the north circular
avoids london given its about 5 miles inside it!

And certainly not ringways 1 & 2 which were within or close to the North &
South Circulars.
