What to Do If You Drive in the Wrong Direction?

[MichaelMarie]

If you drive in the wrong direction on a regular road and there are no cameras nearby, simply make a U-turn to return to the correct direction. If you drive in the wrong direction on a highway, ensure safety first by moving your vehicle to the emergency lane, turning on the hazard lights, and placing the warning triangle at least 150 meters away from the direction of oncoming traffic. All passengers should move to a safe area outside the guardrail, and you should call the traffic police to report the situation and wait for their assistance. Methods to prevent driving in the wrong direction: 1. Plan your route in advance before entering the highway; 2. Keep your car navigation or mobile navigation updated and pay close attention to the navigation announcements while driving; 3. If you miss an exit, continue driving to the next exit instead of making a U-turn, reversing, or driving in the wrong direction; 4. Always observe road signs and indicators while driving and avoid driving while fatigued.
