Correct answer
- CSí, la señal de emergencia si el vehículo la lleva.Yes, the hazard warning lights, if the vehicle has them.
Switching on the hazard warning lights is correct because it is an essential safety measure when a vehicle is immobilised. The hazard warning lights warn other drivers of the danger and show that the vehicle is there, which helps prevent accidents.
