Under Article 130.3 of the General Traffic Regulations, if the vehicle is immobilised and cannot move again, the occupants must get out on the side away from the traffic, without walking or staying in the lanes or on the hard shoulders. If they cannot do this safely, they must stay inside with their seat belts fastened. Also, Article 125.1 prohibits pedestrians from walking on motorways and dual carriageways, except in the cases in Article 130.
