Vehicle immobilizations
Explanation
To ensure **road safety** on interurban roads, it is mandatory for car drivers to wear a **high-visibility reflective vest** when they exit the vehicle and are on the **roadway or shoulder**. This is crucial because:
- On **roads outside urban areas**, pedestrians and people on the road must be visible to drivers from a considerable distance, especially in low visibility conditions such as at night. A reflective vest helps them be seen from at least **150 meters** away.
- Road safety regulations state that, just as pedestrians must wear luminous or reflective elements, drivers who become pedestrians when exiting their vehicle on these roads must also follow this rule to prevent accidents.
Therefore, the use of a reflective vest on the roadway or shoulder of interurban roads is an essential safety measure to protect both the driver and other road users.
