Default What is your worst journey in a car?

What do you remember as your worst ever journey in a car? Was the car about to break down? Was it a bad driver? Was it long and boring?

My worst journey was from the Peak district to Kent (via the M25) with a broken clutch! I've never concentrated as hard on the road ahead, if the car stopped it was likely I couldn't get it started again! (20 gear changes in all that distance and most were clutchless changes! )

My worst journey was a few years ago coming back from Croft circuit when we had floods. My mums Discovery broke down on the newly opened A1,M. Told the RAC it needed towing on a flatbed as it was 4 wheel drive and they still send a Transit Van!!!! Took them around 4 hours just to get a Flatbed Lorry to us. Then it took another 2 hours to get home......
