How's traveling on the M1 and A74/M74?

Next week I'll be taking my RRS from Hull to Isle of Skye.

How's traveling on the M1 and A74/M74 nowadays? Busy roads? Lots of speed cameras? I'm used to cruising at around 90-100 mph here in Sweden, but I guess that won't be possible due to traffic, speed cameras and police? Range Rover Sport SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic -14

I always find the M74 quite empty when i use it, some lovely scenery around the border too. As said above though, unmarked cars are common. I sit around 75-80 and have never been stopped. 2007 TDV6 HSE

Why not travel up the A1 (M) Cross Forth Road Bridge M9, A84, A85, A82 and A87 ? Yes there are a few cameras but the only mobile unit is usually at Grangemouth. I travel to Skye regularly and find this the best route up - plenty of places to get past slow moving traffic.

From Hull you won't get on the M1, the A1 is the more likely route north.

Of course it's the A1 Smile

I'll be going from Hull to Gleneagles and from there to Isle of Skye.
