A rather anal point, I admit, but the A30 is not a motorway. Only roads with 'M' classifications are motorways, and there are several important differences between 'A' and 'M' roads. An 'M' road (i.e. a motorway) must have at least two carriageways in each direction, a hard shoulder (i.e. an extra carriageway which is not used except in emergencies) and no roundabouts or sharp bends. The only main similarity between a dual carriageway 'A' road and a motorway is that the normal speed limit is 70mph.
