Your tales of travel chaos
Gridlock UK logo
Does your car journey to work drive you to despair? Is the school run simply too much to bear? Is your road so gridlocked that it endangers your family and makes living and travelling a nightmare?

The BBC is looking for people who have personal stories of travel misery.

Following the success of NHS Day and Crime Day in 2002, the BBC is now examining the state of the road network in the UK.

We want to hear what you have to say. Contact us about:

  • any frustrating journey you take on a daily basis

  • whether you can tip us off about the UK's laziest driver - that person for whom a five-minute walk to the newsagent is just too much

  • the UK's most selfish driver - a gas guzzler who thinks nothing of a few fines in order to enjoy ideal motoring conditions

  • a family who lives without a car and cannot understand the obsession with four-wheel travel.

The BBC will be investigating these and other travel topics in a range of coverage on TV, radio and BBCi next month.

We will be also asking who is to blame for the current situation and what the solutions might be.
