May one vehicle tow another in the event of an emergency stop on an urban road?
Vehicle immobilizations
Explanation
In the event that a vehicle stops due to an **emergency** on an urban road, it is possible to tow it, but only in an **exceptional** manner and solely to the **nearest immobilization point**. This is because vehicles that pick up and tow others must be specifically equipped for roadside assistance, like tow trucks. Not just any vehicle can perform this task.
When a vehicle cannot continue driving, it is important to **park it in a place where it obstructs other drivers as little as possible**, such as the right shoulder of the road. Additionally, safety measures should be taken, such as turning on the hazard lights and placing the emergency warning light to indicate that the vehicle is stopped.
Therefore, the option to tow a vehicle on an urban road is allowed only in exceptional situations and with the aim of moving the vehicle to the nearest place where it can be immobilized without causing inconvenience to traffic.
