Correct answer
No
The hard shoulder is a longitudinal strip adjoining the carriageway that is not intended for use by motor vehicles. As a general rule, this part of the road must not be entered, except in specific situations, such as when travelling at an abnormally low speed or in an emergency. Therefore, no vehicle is permitted to travel normally on the hard shoulder of a motorway.
