Breakdowns And CollisionsStandalone practice
Where should a driver stop after a vehicle breakdown, if possible?
A has a vehicle problem but can still move safely. An unobstructed shoulder lies beside the traffic lane.
Correct answer: Well off the road where others can see it
Why
If the vehicle can still be moved safely, leave the traffic lanes and stop in a safe visible place. Avoid bridges and tunnels. Use hazard lights if the location is potentially dangerous and seek assistance instead of attempting repairs in fast-moving traffic.
