If cargo falls onto the road and constitutes a dangerous obstacle, how must the driver signal it?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

When cargo falls onto the road, it becomes an unexpected obstacle. According to General Traffic Regulations, the driver must signal the emergency situation immediately to prevent collisions. This is done by turning on the hazard warning lights (all four indicators simultaneously) and placing the V-16 connected beacon on the highest part of the vehicle. Furthermore, if this occurs at night or in low visibility conditions, the parking lights and, if applicable, clearance lights must be switched on. Flags or old warning triangles are no longer the current regulatory devices for this situation.
