Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Move the vehicle to the right, turn off the engine, and head for the nearest exit.
If there is a fire in the tunnel, pull as far to the right as possible to let emergency vehicles through, and turn off the engine. Leave the key in the ignition and the doors open, and walk with your passengers to the nearest refuge or exit, away from the fire. Do not wait inside the vehicle, and remember that backing up in a tunnel is prohibited.
