You are driving a truck of vehicle class N3 on a motorway. You plan to approach a rest area in the next 15 minutes because a driving break is due. Suddenly you have to stop because of a traffic accident. How do you proceed?

I wait until continuing is possible and then take the driving break at the rest area. I thus use the so-called "stopping place rule"

I drive the truck onto the hard shoulder, secure it and take the driving break there. Otherwise I would exceed the permitted driving times

I drive into the emergency lane, secure the truck and take the driving break there. Otherwise I would exceed the permitted driving times
