If you have a dumb idea, just call it ‘smart’ and everything is gonna be alright…
I’m not exactly shocked by that, the closest I’ve come to an accident was on a smart motorway, the inside lane/former hard shoulder had been closed where the ambulance was with the people from the crash but the third lane where the damaged car was had been left open, I was in the second lane and a car in the third lane noticed blockage rather late and swung in front of me.
It’s mad they allow 70mph all lane running ..on a the m3 between m25 and lightwater 3 out of 4 stranded vehicles have not been noticed and activated warnings in last 2 years (this is just my personal experience)
However we should not throw baby out with bathwater. In places with say a 40 or 50 mph speed limit during rush hours it is ok to have the extra lane used as the cars are crawling anyway esprcially on more urban sections like m42 where it was trailed.
