Does a lorry driver negate his insurance if he does this?
Does a lorry driver negate his insurance policy if he drives along a lane which is signposted as "unsuitable for HGVs"? The incidence of irresponsible drivers using our single track lane (damaging the parapet of a railway bridge as a consequence) is becoming concerning.

Depends on whether he is driving a lorry or an HGV. HGVs are generally 30 to 40 tonne artics.

I have passed my driving three months ago and I'm now planning to go on a short trip using the motorway. I know slip roads are there to gain appropriate speed before joining a motorway's left hand lane....
What should we do if we break down in the live lane of a Smart motorway? Should we ring 999, for example?
Surely on a slip road one should give way to a lane they want to enter? Braking for a vehicle wanting to join could cause an accident. One has to be aware what is legal as well as sensible.
