+1 on everything covered here. Recently, I had a (not-so) Mellow experience X 50. Travelling down I-81 in PA, in 100 deg. + dewpoints in the 70's and traffic comes to a complete stop, due to construction. I am in my 1-piece 'stich with no shade and the sun is baking. It got to the point where I thought I was going to have a heat stroke, so on came the flashers, into the 3' wide "breakdown lane" and I travelled 40 miles at a stretch like this, only getting back into the "travel" lane (not) when barriers forced me to. All told, I probably travelled 100 miles like this.
I would have paid a $200 / $400 / $600 fine if I were stopped--and gladly paid it to get out of that hell!
Finally made it to Hagerstown ,MD in time for the storms that wreaked havoc on DC, WV, MD, VA --but had a nice light show from the hotel room !
