BDifficulty 2/5

If the driver of a broken-down car gets out and occupies the carriageway or shoulder of an interurban road, must they wear a high-visibility vest?

Correct answer

Yes, wear it when getting out.

Yes, put it on before getting out so it is already worn when occupying the carriageway or shoulder under Article 118.4. Road lighting does not remove this duty. After a breakdown, leave only if a safe place off the traffic platform is available: exit on the side away from traffic without walking or remaining on the carriageway or shoulder. If you cannot safely leave, stay inside with your seat belt fastened under Article 130.
