wrong-way driver

A driver going against the flow on a motorway, autoweg or other one-way road, usually by entering an exit slip road the wrong way. If you hear a radio warning or see headlights coming at you, move as far right as possible, slow down, do not overtake and switch on the hazard lights if needed. You avoid becoming one by driving on when you miss an exit.
