Explanation
Under Article 97 of the General Traffic Regulations, if a vehicle is immobilised by a breakdown inside a tunnel, the driver and passengers must leave it and go to the nearest emergency shelter or exit, without walking on the carriageway. If the vehicle can still move after the breakdown, you must drive out of the tunnel.
