I agree, I can't understand why the police don't do that.
I left it as long as I could really .. In the hour I sat there no emergency services vehicles went by ... since the incident was between 13 and 14 they would have just joined at 13, which is a limited interchange junction so I couldn't have got off there.

By the time I went up there were 2 clear lanes and I didn't even need to go on the hard shoulder, just straight up the entry slip. I was pretty nervous about it though and quite uncomfortable with doing it. I actually followed 2 lorries up reasoning that no-one was going to go charging into them.

I was only stuck for an hour, but if I had followed the rules it would have been at least 5 1/2 hours, by which time the kids would have turned feral.
