"Free recovery" on motorways - how do they know you hold broken down?

Driving back on the M1 closing night, we saw lots of signs dotted around where on earth they are widening the road between specific junction.

Can't remember the exact wording on these signs but they show a recovery truck and something along the lines of "Free Recovery". Presumably if you break down, you grasp free recovery away from that part of the pack of the motorway.

So HOW do they know you've broken down? Are there cameras along that clause of the motorway that are monitored? There's no tel. no. on these boards.

I'm really panicky to drive?


they drive up and down.....not hard ehh
and within are telephones surrounded by the orange boxes you hoof it to
and yes also cameras

Car crasher video?


CCTV. It is monitored. You must hold seen portacabins near aerials and a pick-up truck in through road-works...

Additional to below: You can't ring them if they are doing major widen works and the boxes have be ripped up... They install their own CCTV up on the banks and see for cars sat at hand with their hazard lights on.

Can they put a pedals clamp on...



Answers:    obviously dont realise that the emergency phones are broken down when major road works give somebody a lift place when you see the free recovery signs. it way you should stay in the sports car do not get out of the motor and wait for the taking back truck to arrive you will have be noticed on cctv and assistance will be here within minutes.
adjectives the ppl who have told you to use the telephone are wrong and it is very harmful to leave your vehicle how some ppl passed the test I will cannot visualize

the correct thing to do is STAY IN YOUR CAR AND WAIT FOR ASSISTANCE
DONT GO TO THE TELEPHONES THEY DONT WORK THAT IS WHY YOU ARE GETTING FREE RECOVERY BECAUSE THE TELEPHONES DONT WORK AND YOU ARE UNABLE TO TELEPHONE FOR ASSISTANCE

Will i attain towed for parking not...


As a driver you should know that every 1 mile is a yellow box near a phone inside,,,,,,
