. If you have a breakdown, think first of all other road users and -

a) Get your vehicle off the road if possible;

b) Warn other traffic by using your hazard warning lights if your vehicle is causing
an obstruction.;

c) Put a retro reflective warning triangle on the straight road at least 50 metres, on sharp bends almost 100 metres behind and in front and 50 meters in residential area of your broken down vehicle on the same side of the road or use other permitted warning devices if you have them. Never forget the danger from passing traffic;

d) Keep your side lights on if it is dark or visibility is poor;

e) Do not stand(or let anybody else stand) between your vehicle and oncoming traffic;

f) At night or in poor visibility do not stand where you will prevent other road usersseeing your lights; and

g) At night or in poor visibility, put on bright or reflective clothing.

Drivers with disabilities
. If you have a disability which prevents you from following the above advice you should do the following:
a) Stay in your vehicle;

b) Switch on hazard warning lights; and
c) Display a 'Help' pennant or, if you have a mobile phone, contact the
emergency services and be prepared to advise them of your location.

Obstructions
. If anything falls from your vehicle or any other vehicle on the road, stop and retrieve
it only when it's safe to do so.
