Outside built-up areas, when approaching a vehicle stopped on the road, what precautions should be taken?

Correct answer

Reduce speed and, if necessary, stop the vehicle.

Outside built-up areas, when we approach a vehicle stopped on the road, we must reduce our speed to assess the situation safely. If circumstances require it, such as when we cannot pass safely, we must stop the vehicle. This is especially important when assistance vehicles are working on the road, to avoid any kind of accident or risk. It is also important to remain alert so as not to dazzle other drivers or pedestrians who may be travelling in the same direction.
