Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

As of January 1, 2026, the use of traditional warning triangles is prohibited for passenger cars due to the risk of being run over while walking on the roadway to place them. Current regulations mandate the exclusive use of the connected V-16 flashing light. It must be placed on the highest possible part of the vehicle by reaching out the window, ensuring visibility and driver safety without needing to exit the cabin.
