If, because of an emergency, a driver's vehicle comes to a stop inside a tunnel or underpass: if the fault allows you to keep going, you must leave the tunnel or underpass; if that is not possible, take the vehicle to the nearest emergency lay-by; otherwise, stop the vehicle at the right-hand edge. You must also: – Switch off the engine, keep the sidelights on and switch on the hazard warning lights. – Place the hazard warning device: an amber, self-powered (battery) device with geolocation, placed on the highest possible part of the stopped vehicle so that it is as visible as possible. – Call for help from the nearest emergency post (SOS post), if there is one, and follow the instructions given through it. – Both the driver and the other occupants must leave the vehicle and go quickly to the nearest shelter or exit, and must never walk on the carriageway if there are areas closed to vehicle traffic.
