Vulnerable Road UsersDifficulty: 1/5
Your car suddenly loses power on a busy road where there are pedestrians and cyclists nearby. What should you do first to help keep other road users safe?
Explanation
The Highway Code Rule 274 says that if your vehicle breaks down, you should first think of all other road users and avoid causing danger or obstruction. You should signal and carefully move your vehicle to the left, stopping as far off the carriageway as possible. This helps protect vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists. Passengers should get out on the left side, away from traffic, and hazard warning lights should be used to warn others.
