Why would anyone want to picnic next to a motorway [1]? Wouldn't pulling off
at a junction and finding a quiet spot be more to most people's taste?

[1] Except the M45, where you could safely and happily enjoy a picnic on the
fast lane.

But you can't guarantee that there will *be* somewhere nice to picnic
and spend a penny, and if you are travelling 500 miles or so in one day,
you don't really want to waste the time, if you can help it. These
places are shielded from the road by a fairly thick belt of trees, which
baffles the noise.
