Correct answer
stop as far as possible from the vehicle in front.
Stop as far as possible from the vehicle ahead. If traffic causes immobilisation in a tunnel or underpass, the driver and passengers must remain in the vehicle; briefly warn with hazard lights, keep position lights on and stop the engine under Article 97.3. There is no two-minute waiting period for that duty. Emergencies and fire have different instructions.
