hard shoulder

Try to stop near an emergency telephone if at al possible,thereby reducing the risk of potential danger from passing traffic.If possible turn on your hazard lights

Here is an exception telling you to use the hard shoulder as a lane further on.This is because road works are closing one or more lanes.A compulsory reduced speed limit has been introduced to protect the workmans safety.Sometimes speed cameras are installed.Breaking the speed limit if caught will get you nicked.

Should you vehicle run out of petrol,you should use the emergency telephone to seek assistance and not walk along the hard shoulder to the next exit,as these two peolple are doing

This is the inside of an emergency telephone cabinet.There is no dial just pick up the phone and listen to the operator.There is no money to pay for this call.
