Answer 1

Answer

The safe option should be; stay on your side of the highway and try to stop

Explanation

It will be safe to stay on your side instead of trying to change into the other lane which is not your side and has traffic. Accidents can be caused by trying to swerve left all the way across the left side of the highway to your left. Just stay on your side of the road and try to stop while honking your horn to indicate to the other vehicles ahead that you have also stopped. In doing so, the issue might be sorted quicker to prevent further blockage.
