In the event of a Breakdown
1. Make sure you’re in a safe place
· Move your vehicle off the road if possible (watch out for any soft verges).
· If you're on a motorway and can't turn off at the next exit, pull up onto the hard shoulder. Make sure you stop as far to the left as you can.
2. Be Seen
· Turn on your hazard warning lights.
· If it’s dark or foggy, keep your sidelights on too.
3. Keep Safe
· It’s usually safest to get out of your car (using the doors facing away from passing traffic) and wait behind a barrier.
· If you’re on a motorway, move up the bank if you can.
· Leave any animals in the car.
· Wear a reflective jacket if you have one
