BDifficulty 2/5

A breakdown, with no fire and not simply a traffic queue, immobilises your car in a tunnel. What must you do with the engine and lights?

Correct answer

Switch off the engine, activate hazard lights and keep position lights on.

Switch off the engine, activate hazard lights and keep position lights on. If possible, place the vehicle in the nearest emergency area ahead or, if none exists, near the right edge. Activate the prescribed illuminated warning device, request help through SOS if available and follow instructions. Move to the nearest refuge or exit, using areas excluded from vehicles where available. Fire and traffic-queue immobilisation have different specific rules.
