Just last week, a car had missed their turn on the motorway, so decided to REVERSE up the hard shoulder.
Reminds me of a saying I heard: "Good drivers sometimes miss their turn. Bad drivers never miss their turn."
I can't agree more. I always say if you miss a turn or get in the wrong lane then "own your mistake and go around"
Too many times I see someone got in the wrong lane so they turn on their signal and wait or just plow over to the lane they wanted and cut others off. Nobody understands the solid white line. If it's sold white you can't cross it!
I see this shit far too often. It makes me wonder if they're aware their gps can get them rerouted without having to risk their or anyone else's necks.
On Sunday there was a crash blocking an Autobahn. 50 cars turned around and drove back to the nearest exit, on the emergency lane kept free for the ambulance.
I've seen elderly folks do that a few times. Not on the shoulder, but still in their lane, backing up into oncoming traffic. (Yes, I did spend some time living in Florida.)
