Correct answer

  • CEn la parte más alta del vehículo inmovilizado garantizando su máxima visibilidad.On the highest part of the broken-down vehicle, making it as visible as possible.
Explanation

The V-16 hazard warning device is an approved, geolocated light device in amber, powered by its own battery. It must be placed on the highest part of the broken-down vehicle, making it as visible as possible. The V-16 is now the only legal option for signalling a broken-down vehicle or an obstacle on the road; warning triangles are no longer used.
