[QUOTE="anonymous6, post: 1238923"] you are able to use the "safe haven rule" under certain circumstances but I believe it is only good for 15-20 minutes unless you have been "directed to proceed" by a law enforcement officer. one of our drivers went out of hours and parked in the breakdown lane( traffic jam during snowstorm ) on the interstate and was directed to proceed to our hub by law enforcement since he was a hazard to public safety. if he had been over 15 minutes from hub he would of been directed to take the next exit and find a safe parking spot. just as a previous poster said, you ask 10 different people these questions and you get 10 different answers. even the scale DOT officers have given me different answers but they do say the same thing. " if we direct you to proceed, you go! " [/QUOTE]
