What is the general purpose of a connected V-16 hazard-warning beacon?

Correct answer

Warn of an immobilised vehicle’s presence.

Warn of a vehicle immobilised by a breakdown, crash or other emergency. The connected beacon provides a light warning and transmits its location to alert other road users. It does not diagnose an engine fault, confirm casualties or replace calling 112 or roadside assistance when needed. Vehicles covered by the Spanish requirement need a certified connected device valid from 2026.
