How should we signal that a vehicle is immobilized on a motorway?
Vehicle immobilizations
Explanation
When a vehicle is immobilized on a **motorway** due to an emergency, it is important to signal properly to warn other drivers and prevent accidents. The correct way to do this is by using the **emergency signal**.
- **Hazard lights**: They must be turned on to indicate that the vehicle is stopped on the road. These lights are essential for other drivers to see the vehicle from afar and take precautions.
- **Pre-signal warning light**: This is a yellow light placed at the highest point of the vehicle. This light is mandatory and helps the vehicle be visible from a greater distance, alerting other drivers to the emergency situation.
- **Warning triangles**: Although not mandatory, they can be placed 50 meters from the stopped vehicle, both in front and behind, to increase the visibility of the immobilized vehicle.
These measures are crucial to ensure safety on the motorway and allow other drivers to react appropriately to a stopped vehicle.
