the edge of the highway.


There's no easy answer if you can't see where you're going, unless you
really know the road.
Plenty of interstates have steep drop-offs past the edge.
Am I driving into a river?
I'm sure that many won't leave the road for that reason.
And with drainage at the sides, you're probably looking at a tow and
maybe some repairs.
If it came to it, I'd probably go left into the median. But hell, you
can't see that either.
