Take a chill pill and relax.

I'm going with Peter.
You should never be driving at a speed that you can not stop in the distance you can see. That applies as much to cars as trucks.
For most of the Hume there is nowhere you can pull off that is far enough away from the traffic to be safe, and being parked with the hazard lights on might mislead someone into thinking that's where the road goes.
Have the lights on, keep left and take an exit if you aren't comfortable continuing.

Which all goes to prove the point. The keep left law is never enforced, so people never learn. You have to hit them in the hip pocket to have any notice taken.
