[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ive rarely if ever seen drivers stopped on highway because they missed an exit.  What I’ve seen plenty of including last week drivers pulling over and stopping on the shoulder or on the exit ramp in heavy rain.  This is incredibly dangerous.  In low visibility conditions you are risking other drivers ramming you.  Turn on your blinkers and keep moving or get off at the next exit entirely[/quote]

Why is it dangerous to get over on the shoulder? If you truly can't see what you're doing and you can get out of the travel lanes, that seems like the safest option. Driving when you can't see is dangerous too.
Obviously don't block lanes, even partially. [/quote]

Cars next to the shoulder are going 30-40 mph, they can’t see their lane clearly, they often look for blinking lights ahead for direction so they might head straight at you and realize the mistake when it is too late.  Get off the highway completely at the nearest exit is the safest option imo.  [/quote]
