Learn MoreThe A1M is a key motorway section of the A1 Great North Road, connecting London to the North. Here's some useful information about breaking down on the A1M:
If you break down on the A1M, try to get your vehicle to the hard shoulder if possible. Turn on your hazard lights, exit the vehicle from the passenger side, and stand behind the barrier. Never attempt repairs on the hard shoulder. Call for professional assistance immediately.
Parts of the A1M are designated as smart motorways, where the hard shoulder may be used as a running lane. If you break down in a section without a hard shoulder, try to reach an emergency refuge area (marked with blue signs). If this isn't possible, stay in your vehicle with seatbelts fastened and hazard lights on, and call for emergency assistance immediately.
The A1M experiences heavy traffic, particularly during rush hours (6-9am and 4-7pm). Certain sections, such as the approaches to the M25 (J1) and around Hatfield and Stevenage, can be especially congested. Our recovery vehicles are equipped to navigate through traffic efficiently to reach you as quickly as possible.
When calling for assistance on the A1M, try to provide your exact location. Note the nearest junction number, any landmarks, or the driver location signs (small blue signs with white text) that appear every 500 meters on the hard shoulder. This information helps us reach you more quickly.
