here you go ,you can see the barrier but it looks like it is a 2 lane stretch of motorway it's unclear if there actually is a hard shoulder on that stretch which makes it more imperative to get the passengers off the bus and don't forget the driver has a duty of care to the passengers which is why he has been arrested in my opinion

probably because 38 tons of steel travelling at 56 mph does not stop that quickly and he would not be expecting a bus full of passengers stopped in the slow lane
