A vehicle breakdown is certainly a stressful event, but the right reaction can significantly reduce stress and ensure that everything goes smoothly. Here are some steps you should follow:
- Stop in a safe place : if you feel a problem with the vehicle, try to get it off the road safely. It would be ideal to stop in a parking lot or lane that is designed for similar situations.
- Turn on all four turn signals : Activate all four turn signals to warn other drivers of the problem.
- Place a safety triangle : place a safety triangle at least 100 meters behind the vehicle so that other drivers are aware that the vehicle is broken down.
- Contact a car towing service : call a reliable car towing service .
- Stay with the vehicle : If it is safe, stay with the vehicle until help arrives. If you are on a busy road, it is better to get out of the vehicle and wait for help in a safe place.
