In Spain in 2026, a Spanish-registered passenger car is immobilised by a breakdown on the carriageway. Which device must be used to warn of the hazard?

Correct answer

A valid connected certified V-16 beacon.

A connected certified V-16 beacon valid under DGT’s list. Since 1 January 2026 it replaces triangles in this scenario. Activate and place it as high as possible and accessible on the vehicle without exposing yourself to traffic, following instructions. Also use the applicable lights and seek help. Do not walk on the carriageway to place triangles or treat an unconnected V-16 as a valid substitute.
