Emergency Situations

After a breakdown on the shoulder of a Quebec highway, where should you place a warning triangle (if available)?

Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. About 30 metres behind the vehicle, on the same shoulder

Placing the triangle ~30 m behind on the same shoulder gives following traffic enough warning time at highway speeds without forcing them into other lanes. On the dashboard or by the bumper it cannot be seen in time; in a live lane it endangers both you and traffic.
