If the breakdown lets you continue, leave the tunnel or underpass. If this is not possible, drive to the nearest emergency lay-by. Otherwise, stop the vehicle at the right-hand edge. You must also: - Switch off the engine, leave the sidelights on and switch on the hazard warning lights. - Place the hazard warning device: an amber-yellow device with geolocation and its own power supply (batteries), placed on the highest possible point of the vehicle to make it as visible as possible. - Call for help from the SOS post and follow the instructions given through it. - Leave the vehicle and go to the nearest shelter or exit. Do not walk on the carriageway if there are areas closed to vehicles.
