It curves time.
The A15 road between Hessle and Norman Cross has a section of straight road some 15 miles long. It is at this point, cars punch a hole in the fabric of space and time and warp instantly closer to their destination.
Scientists have long speculated why this might be. They have noticed a positive correlation between the number of drivers 'warped' and the number of those who own a DLC Delorean.
An extract from the book 'Velocity or Chronology?' written by Dr. Damian Spunkbubble of the University of Leeds, mentions the effects of driving on this road, and the health risks associated with it.
'...Some eyewhitness accounts state that semi-severe mutation of the human tissue occurs, whilst others saw no change in their physical or mental state.
'Tests were done in 1998, where an armoured bus full of prisoners were taken through. Some experienced exponential growth of limbs and bones, whilst others saw flashbacks of lives that weren't even theirs. A few participants exhibited both symptoms, whilst others experienced no changes whatsoever. It has been discovered subsequently that the likelyhood of mutation was attributed to a higher body mass index, whilst the probability of mental damage occurring was partially but not exclusively attributed to dementia and psychosis...'
There is currently research underway to asses the risk posed to Alzheimers and Parkinson's disease, although some leading medical figures state that the research is 'a waste of time and money' due to the fact that sufferers of Parkinsons Disease don't drive.
Some scientists have speculated that merely stopping your watch is the most effective preventative, whilst others argue that removing your watch altogether is the only way to stave off the effects of what is known as 'A15-Curvature'. Local councils are currently discussing what to eat for lunch, as well as the total reconstruction of the A15 in the affected area. The cost of such work is estimated to be some £50,000,000, as the stretch in question is 15 miles long.
