[QUOTE=wozaup it is common knowledge that a slip road is to get upto speed with the motorway to stop accidents not cause them, i wonder how many people are going to get shunted from behind before they actually decide to get rid of the things.

Well, they are usually put on when the motorway traffic is very heavy and moving slowly so picking up high speed on the slip road doesn't apply anyway, and in my opinion elviates any shunting.

Recommended speed to enter a motorway, under normal conditions, is 45 m.p.h.
