I think it's definitely someething to do with the one way roads.... as
if I take the one way criteria off the northbound carriageway, they
seem to overtake rather than just sitting behind the slowest.  

The thing is, sometimes they do overtake, but sometimes not, and I
can't find any reason why they do/don't.....

That might explain it....  I have been creating every tile on the
motorway as a one way tile... in case any towns decide to add their
own entrances/exits while I'm not watching.....

*ponder* (!)
