Dangerous Contraflow
I do not use the M20 when Brock is in place.
I have found that when travelling westbound and sticking to the speed limit I am frequently harassed by a foreign truck driver inches from my rear bumper trying to force me to go faster. The truck driver knows he won't be prosecuted for speeding. This is no fun in a Fiat Panda! The resulting danger means that I choose to use the A20.
I cannot access the M20 eastbound from junction 8 and junction 7 is out of my way, so I choose to use the A20.
There seems to be frequent accidents in the contraflow and when this happens all traffic comes to a standstill often for an extended period with drivers trapped on the motorway. For this reason I choose to use the A20.
When the A20 becomes congested I can take to the country lanes to avoid the holdup. My additional use of the A20 and the country lanes is a nuisance for the local users who have no choice but to use them and it seriously affects the quality of life of residents. Unfortunately I feel that I have no choice due to the unacceptable risk of using the M20.
