  2. No.
  3. No, it is not necessary if you can remove the load immediately.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, using the connected V-16 warning light.

If the fallen load obstructs the roadway, you must signal it with the connected V-16 warning light, even if you can pick it up right away. Then remove it safely. The V-16 has replaced warning triangles since 2026.
