What To Do In Case Of Breakdowns
  • If possible move your vehicle off the carriageway onto the road shoulder, or drive into the nearest rest area
  • Switch off the ignition
  • Switch on the hazard lights to warn other drivers
  • Place the reflective hazard triangle at least 30m behind the car so motorists know well in advance there is a potential hard ahead
  • You may wish to also open your car bonnet and boot to be more visible to other approaching motorists
  • Look out for emergency public phones located every 2km along the highway
  • While waiting for help, do not stay in the car or stand in front or behind it. Stand at the side furthest from traffic and behind guardrails if any
  • If you are driving a rented car and it breaks down, you should call your car rental company for assistance
