Your car is stopped on an expressway shoulder after a breakdown. There is no fire or immediate collision threat. What does SAAQ advise while waiting for help?
Correct answer: Stay in the car with the hazard lights on and call for help.
Why
In the stated situation, remain in the vehicle with the hazard lights on and call for help. Do not stand in a traffic lane or start repairs beside passing vehicles. If an immediate danger makes staying unsafe, the response must change: reach a safe place away from traffic only if you can do so safely and follow emergency instructions.
