Using emergency signals
If your vehicle breaks down on
the road
Make sure other drivers can see your
vehicle and stop in time. If possible,
pull out of the traffic flow. If you can’t
get completely off the road, try to stop
where people have a clear view of you
and your vehicle. Don’t stop just over
a hill or just around a curve.
Tip
Turn on your hazard warning
lights to warn other drivers. If
your vehicle doesn’t have hazard
warning lights use your left
indicator instead. Lift your bonnet
or boot lid to show other drivers
you are in trouble.
Driving in dangerous conditions
or situations
You may use hazard warning lights if
you are driving in dangerous weather
conditions, such as fog, smoke, or
if you are driving slowly and likely to
obstruct other vehicles or pedestrians.
You must not operate front or rear fog
lights unless driving in fog or hazardous
weather conditions. They can dazzle
other drivers if used in other weather
conditions.
Warning others of your approach
You must only use your horn if it is
necessary to warn other road users of
the approach or position of your vehicle.
