Explanation

If the vehicle becomes immobilised because of an emergency in a tunnel or underpass, you must mark it and call for help from the nearest SOS post, following its instructions; the occupants must then go to the emergency shelter or the exit. Staying inside the vehicle is not the right thing to do.
