What to Do When You Run Out of Gas While Driving on the Road?
1 Answers
Here are the solutions for running out of gas while driving on the road: 1. First, you can call your insurance company for assistance. They will send a roadside rescue vehicle to either add some fuel to your car or help tow it to a gas station. Alternatively, you can call a friend to buy some fuel from a gas station and bring it to you. Lastly, you can ask passing vehicles for help to share a bit of fuel. 2. Generally, if the fuel gauge warning light comes on while driving, it indicates that the vehicle is out of fuel. In this case, you should immediately head to the nearest gas station to refuel. If you are on the highway, maintain a high gear and try to exit the highway as soon as possible. Avoid shifting to neutral, as this consumes more fuel. Maintain a steady speed while driving. 3. If the fuel level is critically low, you may need to stop and seek help. However, remember to park in the emergency lane, turn on your hazard lights, and place a warning triangle about 100 meters behind your vehicle. Then, call 110 or 122 for assistance. If the gas station is not far, you can also walk to buy fuel yourself. But keep in mind that pushing the car on the highway is extremely dangerous and should be avoided.
