Where should the vehicle breakdown warning sign be placed on the highway?
2 Answers
Place the triangular warning sign 150 meters in the direction of oncoming traffic. Below is an introduction about highways: 1. Introduction: Highway, abbreviated as expressway, refers to a road dedicated to high-speed vehicle travel. Highways have different definitions across countries, regions, eras, and academic fields. According to China's "Technical Standards for Highway Engineering" (JTGB01-2014), highways are defined as multi-lane roads exclusively for directional and lane-separated vehicle travel with full access control. The average annual daily traffic volume for highways should exceed 15,000 passenger car units, with design speeds ranging from 80 to 120 kilometers per hour. 2. Social Benefits: Highways are symbols of modernization and reflect a nation's comprehensive strength. Their construction and operation involve various aspects of the national economy and social life.
Bro, I've been driving on highways for twenty years, and I know a thing or two about warning signs. When your car breaks down, the first thing is to turn on the hazard lights and pull over as far into the emergency lane as possible. Get out of the car quickly and move behind the guardrail for safety. Take the warning triangle from the trunk, unfold it, and place it behind your car. Distance is crucial—on regular highways, place it at least 150 meters away, roughly 200 steps. In rainy, foggy conditions or on curves, extend it to over 200 meters to give following vehicles enough reaction time. Never slack off by placing it right behind your car—getting rear-ended is no joke!
