A similar concern from this report was raised again 1 time later. See the linked reports.
The coroner's concerns
1. unclear lane usage on slip road
“was told by the Police Collision Investigator that the traffic had started queuing on the slip road at Junction 14 into lane one. It was suggested that there was some uncertainty by drivers using the slipway as to which lane they should use and that the signage is not clear.”
2. lack of run-off lane at junction 14
“the most recently build slip roads on other motorways there is now provision for a run off lane to be provided prior to the junction. Perhaps a similar lane could be provided at junction 14 of the M1”

Later report
“The exit point of the A5 "off" slip road at the Little Brickhill junction is wide. The signage indicating No Entry appears to be inadequate as there are two No Entry signs which are widely spaced at the junction.”
