Placement of warning triangle
Tip
●
While parking the vehicle for repairs on a public road, please bear in mind to place
the warning triangle at a position 100~200m reach behind your vehicle in such
manner that its red surface faces towards the incoming vehicles, in order to alert the
vehicles behind and prevent the dangers. At completion of repairs, please take back
the warning triangle for future use.
The warning triangle is used to alert the vehicles behind, in order to prevent the over-high
speed or non-timely braking of the vehicles behind from impacting with the vehicle parked
or being repaired ahead and causing dangers.
