So, this was new (opposite way in breakdown lane)

So, wending my way north at 5:30pm (Chiefs pizza is worth it) Backup at the Rt5 Great Mills Raod intersection coming from the south is an easy two miles. Usual cast of jokers who think they can travel that whole distance in the breakdown lane, duelling it out with a guy in a big pickup sorta committed to shutting them down, even flashed a badge of some sort, but since he refused to get all the way over people still passed him. But what blew my mind was this other guy.

Maybe later 40 into the 50s, cell phone to head. Red older Ford Ranger, and he's going north all right. In the southbound lanes breakdown lane. Safety first, of course, he did have his flashers going, and he kept the speed down to say 30ish. But WTH, where do you even think that's okay? Disntance I saw had to be more than 3/4 of a mile, and after that corner, it's at least another 1/4 before you hit any place he could have taken the left he felt was worth that.
