The Day the UK Stopped - River Song - 17 October 2015
Came across this BBC Mocumentary - it's about 1-1/2 hours long
and shows how just one thing can cause complete shutdown all over the place -- the dependencies on each other is frightening. Think I'll stop at home.

what have I always said about the "domino" effect, one thing affects something else that affects a third a fourth, so on and so forth, nope, nobody ever gets it.

A "Mockumentary"?

Enjoyed it, very well done and certainly highlights the fact that so much of the UK is near to max capacity in many aspects. Had a neighbour a while back caught in a gridlock on M1 for 6 hours!

just a small "fender bender" will lock down a road for hours sometimes.

just this morning the M5 near Cullompton was closed for over an hour due to an escaped Bullock.
