If load falls from your vehicle onto the carriageway, what must you do?

Correct answer

Warn of the danger and arrange safe removal, requesting assistance if needed.

Warn of the incident and take measures to remove the load as soon as possible without creating another hazard, requesting assistance if needed. Do not walk among traffic to retrieve it. If immobilised, leave only when you can reach a safe place outside the traffic platform, on the side away from traffic without walking in lanes or shoulders; otherwise remain inside with your belt fastened. Use the required warning equipment and, where applicable when exiting onto an interurban carriageway or shoulder, a reflective vest.
