Correct answer

  • CUsaremos la señal de emergencia junto el alumbrado de posición.We will use the hazard warning lights together with the position lights.
Explanation

Any vehicle that, for any reason, is immobilised between sunset and sunrise, or in weather conditions that reduce visibility, on the carriageway or hard shoulder of a road must have its position lights on. In addition, as it is a breakdown, we must use the hazard warning lights together with the position lights.
