What are hazard warning lights?

[StStephanie]

Hazard warning lights are malfunction alert lights, commonly known as double flashers, technically termed as hazard warning lights. Below are common situations when hazard warning flashers should be activated: When the vehicle malfunctions: If a vehicle suddenly breaks down during road travel and cannot be promptly moved to a safe area, the hazard warning flashers should be immediately activated to alert passing vehicles and pedestrians for safety, and to promptly call for help while waiting for rescue. Breakdown on highways: When a vehicle breaks down on a highway, it should stop within the emergency parking lane, promptly activate the hazard warning flashers, and place a hazard warning sign 150 meters behind the faulty vehicle, then quickly call for help. The driver and passengers should wait for rescue outside the front guardrail of the faulty vehicle. When towing a malfunctioning vehicle: When towing a malfunctioning vehicle, as the vehicle is in an abnormal state, both the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle should simultaneously activate their hazard warning flashers. This alerts passing vehicles and pedestrians, especially those approaching from behind, to avoid sudden lane changes or failing to maintain a safe distance, which could lead to dangerous situations.
