Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

As a general road safety rule, any obstacle or hazard on the road must be signaled at all times, both day and night. The purpose is to warn other users well in advance to avoid collisions. This is done by using the hazard warning lights (both indicators flashing simultaneously) and, if the vehicle is immobilized, using hazard warning devices (triangles or V-16 luminous signal). Thinking that it is only necessary in bad weather or in the city is a dangerous mistake; visibility and warning are crucial regardless of environmental conditions or the type of road.
