How many meters should the warning triangle be placed behind the car?
1 Answers
The warning triangle should be placed 50-100 meters behind the car. Conventional road setup: According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China", on conventional roads, when a breakdown or traffic accident occurs, the warning triangle should be placed 50 to 100 meters behind the vehicle; on highways, the warning sign should be placed more than 150 meters behind the vehicle, and in rainy or foggy weather, the distance should be increased to 200 meters. Correct placement method for warning triangle: The correct way to use the warning triangle is to place it at the proper distance. Some car owners have the awareness to set up the warning triangle when an accident occurs, but the placement distance is almost equivalent to not placing it at all. Some place it directly less than 10 meters behind the car. If the warning triangle is placed too close to the accident site, it is practically the same as not placing it at all.
