Motorway Lay-by Recovery Diagram
If your vehicle stops in a motorway lay-by or emergency area, try to leave enough clear space behind the vehicle for the recovery truck and ramps. A flatbed truck needs room to line up safely, lower the ramps and winch the vehicle on without blocking more space than needed.

Motorway Breakdown Safety Advice
If you break down on the M61, your safety is more important than the vehicle. Put your hazard lights on, move left or into a safe emergency area if it is safe, leave the vehicle from the passenger side, keep everyone behind the safety barrier and away from traffic, and do not stand between your car and moving traffic. If there is danger, an accident, smoke, fire, injury, or you cannot get to a safe place, call 999 first. When you are safe, send your live location, M61 direction, junction number, vehicle details and drop-off postcode so the correct recovery truck can be arranged.
