When a special vehicle uses the rotating yellow light (V-2 signal) while driving, what is it actually indicating?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is that it simply indicates its presence and position on the road. This light signal is called V-2, and its purpose is to warn other users of a potential hazard because the vehicle is performing a service, is stopped, or is traveling at a speed not exceeding 40 km/h. It is a common mistake to think it grants priority; it does not grant right of way (unlike the blue lights of police or ambulances). However, upon seeing this light, other drivers must exercise extreme caution and, if possible without creating danger, facilitate the vehicle's passage or maneuvers.
