Weren't vehicle stopped further north streaming off it?
Plus I'm amazed you were able to reverse that distance without encountering anything else on the hard shoulder.
Glad you were able to get off - the habit in the UK of completely shutting motorways and leaving people trapped for hours is just ridiculous - however I get very nervous even using a bit of hard shoulder to get to a slip road when traffic is stopped.
