Would you have called 999

So am driving southbound, M3 , and just approaching Jct 5 for Hook, slowed down to a crawl and had a look over the barrier and there is a car on the NORTHBOUND hard shoulder , no hazards and what looked to be someone slumped over the steering wheel, it took maybe 10-15 seconds to come off the Mway, and the person didnt move

Would you have called the police to be on the safe side ??

[dh.dti]

Yes most deffo would

[Deztroyer]

yep - and Even now Paul ....wouldnt be a bad idea ....better safe than sorry

[spennny]

I pulled over on the sliproad mate and called them immediatly, just wasnt sure and didnt want to waste their time, i did ask for the highways agency but i was told emergency services only

They have my number and address so will see if there is any outcome

[Vaux-Man-G]

Well done mate, id've done the same.

[Das]

Defiantly, better safe than sorry.

[AntSSSS]

completely the right thing to do mate.. Anything out of the ordinary on a motorway is classed as an emergency purely due to the potential issues it may cause.

[DarylAAS]

Definately mate.. you may have even just saved someones life... Well Done..!!!

[spennny]

Well fingers crossed it was the correct thing to do and the person is ok,
I asked the operator for an update if possible so if anything comes out of it i will let u know

[Deztroyer]

highly unlikely you will be updated
...... just keep an eye on the local news/radio tonight, you stand more chance of seeing/hearing something that way
