Moran reveals how and why a relatively simple road system turned into a maze-like pattern of roundabouts, flyovers and spaghetti junctions. Combining travel writing, anthropology, history and social observation, he explores how Britain's roads have their roots in unexpected places, from Napoleon's role in the numbering system, to the surprising origin of sat-nav.
