If your motorcycle breaks down on the roadway and becomes immobilized, how should you signal its presence?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is with the hazard warning lights (emergency signal) if available. Under Spanish regulations, motorcycles are not required to carry danger pre-signaling devices (warning triangles or the V-16 light) due to the lack of physical space to transport them safely. Therefore, the options mentioning 'mandatory triangles' are incorrect. The correct way to signal the breakdown is by switching on the hazard warning lights (all indicators flashing simultaneously) if the motorcycle is equipped with this system. Additionally, between sunset and sunrise, or in conditions of poor visibility, the position lights must also be switched on.
