Van Recovery at the M50's breakdown hotspots

These are the stretches of the M50 where we are called out most often, and where we keep van recovery resources close at hand:

Junction 1 (M5 interchange at Strensham), the merge from the busy M5 onto the much quieter M50 involves a speed reduction that catches some drivers off guard; vehicles that have been running hard on the M5 from Birmingham sometimes show mechanical stress once they reach the M50

Leadon Valley fog zone between Junctions 2 and 3, the river valley traps cold air and produces dense fog on autumn and winter mornings; visibility can drop to less than 50 metres while higher ground nearby remains clear

Junction 4 (Ross-on-Wye), the transition from motorway to A-road involves a roundabout that attracts tourist traffic unfamiliar with the area; confused sat-nav following causes sudden stops and minor collisions
