00:11and an ever-growing motoring population causing greater levels of congestion, driving from

00:39time travelling on the M40, giving that motorway a 79% approval rating.

00:44Despite sitting at the top of the league table though, satisfaction with the M40 has dropped

00:48since last year's score of 81%, but it still did nab the top spots from the M5, which was

00:53the king of the roads last year, and is now in fourth place, just behind the M4 in third.
