Over in Manchester, watch out for delays on the M60 near junction 12 due to a broken down vehicle causing a quacking commotion.Heading down south to London, traffic is crawling on the A406 North Circular Road by Chiswick Roundabout, so maybe listen to a podcast to pass the time. In Bristol, there's a flock of cars causing a tailback on the M5 near junction 17, so if you're in a rush, try some deep breathing exercises.And finally, over in Edinburgh, it seems like drivers have flown the coop, as there's smooth sailing on the A720 City Bypass. But don't count your chickens before they hatch, as things can change faster than you can say, Where's my Sat Nav?That's all for now, stay safe out there on the roads and keep those windscreen wipers handy.
