Widow: Smart M-way failures 'are a scandal'

A WIDOW whose husband died on a smart motorway five years ago is furious they are still being used as hundreds of power failures emerged.

Claire Mercer's husband Jason, 44, and Alexandru Murgeanu, 22, were hit by a lorry and killed on the M1 in 2019 as they swapped details after a collision.

She said: "It's an absolute scandal.

"We just need to turn the first lane off and give us a hard shoulder back" Smart motorways are stretches of road where technology is used to regulate the traffic and ease congestion.
