Going onto a motorway rquires special skills and equipment, rather like

mentally and physically to go onto motorways.


And also not allowed to.




I do believe that Doug should be allowed to use his e-bike on the M25, as
long as he keeps to the slow lane.


OTOH, I would only agree to that if he were mandated to get into the outside
overtaking lane asap and stay there until 100 yards from his exit slip road.
