Comment

If a vehicle has a breakdown on a multi-lane roadway at a location where it cannot be detected in time as an obstacle, you as a car driver must immediately turn on the hazard lights. Afterwards, a breakdown triangle should be placed clearly visible at a sufficient distance, in fast traffic about 100 m in front of the vehicle. You do not need to switch on the reversing light.
