BDifficulty 2/5

A car with MAM no greater than 3,500 kg travels on a motorway at abnormally low speed due to a breakdown, without seriously disrupting traffic, and can safely continue. Where should it travel?

Correct answer

In the right-hand lane, if it does not seriously obstruct traffic.

In the right-hand lane, since it does not seriously disrupt traffic. Leave the motorway at the first exit. If emergency slow travel seriously disrupts traffic, use the right shoulder if it is usable and sufficient, or otherwise the minimum necessary part of the carriageway. Do not continue if the vehicle cannot travel safely.
