When is it obligatory to place a warning triangle?
- Only when a malfunctioning vehicle is left unsupervised.
- Only when a malfunctioning vehicle is left standing for more than 24 hours.
- Correct answer: Whenever it is necessary to abandon a vehicle on the road.
- Only when a malfunctioning vehicle is left standing on an urban road.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Whenever it is necessary to abandon a vehicle on the road.
A warning triangle alerts approaching drivers to a vehicle standing on the road where they do not expect it. That is why it must be placed whenever you are forced to leave a vehicle on the road, on any type of road. The duty does not depend on how long the vehicle stays there or on whether someone stays with it. The options limiting it to urban roads, to more than 24 hours or to unsupervised vehicles are wrong.
