When placing a warning triangle behind a broken-down vehicle, what is the sound principle?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. Place it far enough back to be seen in time
- Step 1: A triangle gives warning of a hazard. Step 2. Place it where approaching drivers see it early and walk on the safe side. Answer: Place it far enough back to be seen in time. Why not the others: Place it directly in front of the vehicle: drivers approaching from behind would not see it. Place it next to the driver's door: this gives too little warning. Do not use one at all on a bend: a bend is a place where a warning matters most.
