Large, dual carriageway road with special status (in UK, Ireland, Australia). International equivalents: Interstate, Autobahn, autostrada. No stopping, u-turns, etc. Maximum speed limit (in UK) 70mph/110kph. In practice the police leave you alone up to 100mph/160kph. No speed cameras are allowed on ordinary motorways (eg no roadworks, or otherwise reduced speed limits). Due to poor planning and low government spending on all transport, UK motorways are notoriously congested (the busiest stretch or road in Europe, the M6 through Birmingham, has only 3 lanes each way).

The other approved model of London "Black cab", constructed of GRP in Tamworth. Favoured by some taxi drivers due to price. Boxy design (looks like a cross between an old volvo and a bus) means nowhere near as famous as the London Taxi. See also plastic pig.
