I know you don't get that many breakdowns on motorways these days but using the shoulder as a live lane is crackers in my book. I've had a puncture and several other reasons to use them over the years and they are vital for safety.

Free flowing motorways, seems nuts, agreed. Where there's queueing traffic that doesn't go very fast, perhaps it's a viable idea.

But if the motorway wasn't congested, there'd be no need to use the hard shoulder anyway. Hence the signs that tell you whether you can use it or not.
