Question 1751

If your vehicle breaks down and is left stopped on the roadway, how must you mark it?

  1. With the hazard lights and the connected V-16 warning light.
  2. Only with the hazard lights.
  3. During the day, with the position lights and warning triangles.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: With the hazard lights and the connected V-16 warning light.

A broken-down passenger car on the roadway is signaled with the hazard lights and the connected V-16 warning light. Since January 1, 2026, the V-16 has replaced warning triangles. Hazard lights alone are not enough.
