Correct answer
keep the position lights on and switch off the engine.
Keep position lights on and switch off the engine. Also use hazard lights temporarily to warn drivers approaching from behind and leave as much space as possible to the vehicle ahead. If the stop is solely due to traffic, occupants should not leave the vehicle. Article 97 does not require waiting two minutes to apply these measures; an emergency or fire is handled differently.
