Explanation

According to the General Traffic Regulations (RGC), if your vehicle breaks down inside a tunnel, you must leave the vehicle and go to the nearest shelter or exit. This is crucial for safety, because staying inside the vehicle in a tunnel can be dangerous owing to poor ventilation and the possibility of a fire. The rules state that occupants must avoid risks and look for safe areas away from danger.
