Correct answer
- CPueden salir, pero no circular por la calzada.May get out, but not walk on the carriageway.
If there is a breakdown on a motorway (autopista), passengers may leave the vehicle but must not walk on the carriageway, as this would be extremely dangerous because of the speed of other vehicles. They must stay in a safe place, such as the hard shoulder or behind the safety barriers, until help arrives or they move to a safe place. It is not correct to stay inside the vehicle if there is a risk, nor to walk on the carriageway, as this greatly increases the chance of an accident.
