BDifficulty 2/5

A breakdown in a tunnel requires the vehicle to stop, and an accessible emergency area is nearby in the direction of travel. If it can be reached safely, where should the vehicle be immobilised?

Correct answer

In that emergency area, if it can be reached safely.

Use the nearby designated emergency area in the direction of travel. If the breakdown allows safe continuation to the exit, continue to it; if an emergency area cannot be reached, move close to the right edge. Once immobilised, switch off the engine, activate hazard warning lights and retain position lights. Request assistance and follow instructions; do not improvise a tow with another driver.
