Incidents & First Aid
You're first on the scene of a motorway crash. How can you warn other traffic at night?
- ○Stand in the live lane
- ✓Use hazard lights and, if safe, a warning triangle — but not on a motorway
- ○Flash a torch at drivers from the carriageway
- ○Do nothing
Correct answer
Use hazard lights and, if safe, a warning triangle — but not on a motorway
Switch on hazard lights to warn others; don't use a warning triangle on a motorway as it's too dangerous to place (rule 283–284).
