BDifficulty 3/5

As a private passenger-car driver, with no professional activity subject to additional rules, when do the Regulations require wearing a high-visibility vest after leaving the vehicle?

Correct answer

When leaving and occupying an interurban carriageway or shoulder.

When leaving and occupying the carriageway or shoulder of an interurban road, by day or night, under Article 118.4. This is not confined to emergencies. That same general duty does not apply to this driver on every urban road; specific duties do apply to certain professional drivers. A vest does not authorise remaining on the road platform: follow Article 130 precautions for a breakdown.
