I sat in my car on the hard shoulder of the M74 near Beattock when I had a breakdown. It was ■■■■■■■ down with rain and there was nothing on the other side of the barrier except a cliff and every time a truck came past it was like having a bowlful of mucky water chucked in my face. Sit in nice warm, dry, comfy car and take the (very small) risk of something veering off the carriageway into you, or stand on the verge looking like a [zb] and getting ■■■■ wet through? I’ll take my chances with the former.Or look for a bridge or culvert out of the elements. ■■
I take it you’ve never been on the M74 between 15 and 14 then otherwise you’d know that there aren’t any. In any case, the car was disabled so I didn’t have any choice in the matter.
I’ve been up and down the 74 since 1977… i hate to think how many times,
started when it was still dual carriageway and we all had cb’s so we knew where sherriff little was at any given moment… …good days
