Vehicle immobilizations
Explanation
To ensure **road safety** in case of an emergency, it is important to know how and where to place the **warning triangles**.
- When a vehicle breaks down or is involved in an accident and cannot continue driving, it should be parked on the **right shoulder** of the road or in the place where it least obstructs traffic. This is crucial to minimize the risk of additional accidents.
- The warning triangles are placed **50 meters** from the stopped vehicle. One should be placed in front and another behind the vehicle, always on the **right side** of the road. This ensures that approaching drivers can see them from a distance of **100 meters**, allowing them to react in time.
- Placement on the right side is essential because it is the side where vehicles travel in the direction of traffic, maximizing visibility and the effectiveness of the warning signal.
By following these guidelines, you contribute to the safety of all road users.
