How to Use Hazard Warning Lights When Parking a Manual Transmission Car?
1 Answers
Generally, there is a button with a red triangle symbol located on the center console. Pressing this button will activate the vehicle's hazard warning lights. It is important for drivers to note that these lights should only be used in relatively urgent situations. Hazard warning lights, also known as emergency flashers or hazard lights, serve to alert, warn, and indicate during accidents or other emergencies. When a vehicle encounters an emergency and must stop by the roadside, the hazard lights should be turned on, and a triangular safety warning sign should be placed at a certain distance behind the vehicle. However, if the hazard lights are turned on while waiting for someone in urban areas where short stops are allowed, it constitutes misuse. In the event of a traffic accident where the vehicle cannot be moved to a safe area, the driver should immediately activate the hazard lights to signal danger to other road users, call the police, and while waiting for rescue, all occupants should exit the vehicle and move to a safe location. According to relevant traffic laws, on regular roads, hazard lights may only be used in conjunction with fog lights during foggy conditions. In other weather conditions such as rain, snow, or sandstorms, hazard lights must not be used while driving on regular roads.
