BDifficulty 2/5

With no alternative means and exceptionally serious circumstances, a driver must transport a sick person in a car equipped with hazard lights. How can that situation be signalled?

Correct answer

Sounding the horn and switching on the hazard warning lights.

Use the horn intermittently and switch on hazard lights. Article 70 also provides for a handkerchief or similar means to warn of the situation. This does not make the vehicle a priority vehicle or permit disregarding lights or rules: obey traffic rules, especially at junctions. Officers may require justification of the emergency.
