Hard lines for hard shoulder motoristpublished at 10:01 Greenwich Mean Time 12 March 2018
A cautionary tale...
Don't reverse down the hard shoulder if you're stuck in traffic in West Yorkshire like this driver did:
And that's specially the case if a police officer also using the hard shoulder spots you, as happened on the M62 this morning.
Highways officer Martin Willis tweeted this picture, external and said: "This motorist thought it would be a good idea to use the hard shoulder to avoid queuing in traffic.
"Unlucky for the driver that I happened to be in the queuing traffic! Driver reported."
