WARNING
A vehicle breakdown in traffic is dangerous and creates a great risk for you, your
passengers, and others.
Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so. Move the vehicle a safe distance off
the road where it is safe to park and, if necessary, lock all doors in an emergency. Turn on
the emergency flashers and set up another warning device about 25 yards (25 meters) behind
the vehicle to warn approaching traffic.
Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who cannot help themselves alone in
the vehicle when locking the doors. This could result in people being trapped in the vehicle in
an emergency. Depending on the time of year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed
to very high or very low temperatures.
