At night, a breakdown forces you to immobilise a car on an interurban road’s shoulder. Its lights work. Which combination must you use to signal its presence?

Correct answer

Position lights and hazard warning lights.

Use position lights and hazard warning lights. Article 105.1 requires position lights when immobilised at night on the carriageway or shoulder; Article 109.2.c requires hazards, if fitted, where visibility is substantially reduced. Dipped headlights do not replace position lights. Also follow applicable breakdown-warning requirements; these lights do not replace the connected V-16 device where mandatory. This is not a requirement for position lights in every well-lit urban parking situation.
