dual carriageways are 2 or more lanes in each direction WITH A CENTRAL DIVIDER. e.g. the A556 from Alty to Lymm is 4 lanes, 2 each way but has no central division so its not a dual carriageway.

Motorways have a hard shoulder for breakdowns(although with signage these can be temporarily not defined). They are also subject to more restrictive laws, no learners, no motorcycles under 50cc, no pedestrians or cyclists
