Under what circumstances can hazard lights be used?
1 Answers
Hazard warning lights are used to alert others that the vehicle is in a special situation. Sometimes, improper use of hazard lights can not only cause dissatisfaction among other drivers but also easily lead to traffic congestion and disrupt the normal flow of traffic. Hazard lights should only be turned on when a traffic accident occurs and the vehicle cannot be moved to a safe area. In such cases, it is also necessary to place a triangular warning sign behind the vehicle to alert approaching vehicles and then call for help while waiting for rescue. Alternatively, if the vehicle encounters a special situation and cannot continue driving while waiting for assistance, remember to turn on the hazard lights to alert passing vehicles that the car is in an abnormal state. Additionally, when driving in severe weather conditions with visibility less than 100 meters and speed below 40 km/h, hazard lights and position lights can be turned on as a warning.
