If you stop on this stretch
- Pull as far onto the hard shoulder as you can and switch on hazard lights.
- Everyone out on the side away from traffic, behind the barrier.
- Note your direction (towards Peshawar or Islamabad) and the nearest km marker.
- Call the Motorway Police helpline 130 if you're blocking a lane or anyone is hurt.
- Strong crosswinds and dust on the open stretches can push light cars around. Keep both hands on the wheel and ease off if the car feels unsettled.
- Winter mornings bring fog near Peshawar and Charsadda. Slow down, use low beams and fog lights, and never stop in a live lane to wait for it to clear.

Questions
How long is the M-1 between Islamabad (M-1/M-2) and Islamabad (M-1)?
About 1 km. Tell us roughly how far you are from either end, or read the nearest km marker.
Which direction should I say I'm travelling?
Say whether you're heading towards Peshawar or towards Islamabad. On a divided motorway we need the correct carriageway.
Can you fix the car here instead of towing it?
Often, yes: flat batteries, punctures and empty tanks are fixed at the roadside. Otherwise we recover it on a flatbed.
