Must a non-agricultural trailer or semitrailer be equipped with direction indicators with hazard-warning signalling?

Correct answer

Yes, always, regardless of their MAM.

Yes, whether its maximum authorised mass is below or above 3,500 kg. The requirement concerns direction-indicator equipment with hazard-warning signalling, not keeping the lights continuously switched on. Agricultural trailers have their own provisions and are excluded from the question. Check operation and connections before travelling; 3,500 kg is not the threshold for this requirement.
