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.

Why the other answers are wrong

  • A.On the dashboardThe instrument panel is visible only from very close up.
  • C.In the centre of the lane behind the vehicleWalking in a live lane exposes you and disrupts the traffic.
  • D.Next to the front bumperPlaced too close to the vehicle, the warning comes too late.
