Sorry 6 hours = ) 180 itself is not that high a speed (my Mini goes 210) , but averaging that is quite difficult. My fuel stop was 5 mins.
Anyhow, what the BBC is saying is now hilarious.
You can stop in a remote place in France, for example to stretch your legs or walk your dog, and if you don’t have any contact with other people or enter any public spaces you will not have to quarantine for 14 days when you get back.But if you get out of your vehicle at a service station or on ferry while crossing from France to the UK, you will be required to self-isolate on your return.

So if you stop for fuel in a self service station, like I did when I drove by France, I guess you are ok! The court case for this would be borderline hilarious if we ever got there.
