The M11 motorway was closed for 25 minutes following an accident last month. 86 impatient drivers decided to turn around and drive the wrong way down the road to avoid the incident.
Dashcam and mobile phone video submitted to Safer Essex Road Partnerships' Extra Eyes campaign has been reviewed by Essex Police. All 86 drivers will receive a £100 fine and 3 penalty points on their licence.
The head of road policing said "People determined to continue to do this must remember there are extra eyes on our roads. Being impatient does not pay."
