Are you obliged to signal a car parked because of a breakdown in a built-up area where it is prohibited?

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

The Road Traffic Act regulations require the driver to signal a stationary vehicle due to a breakdown or accident, if this takes place in a built-up area where stopping is prohibited. Such signalling involves switching on the hazard warning lights and placing a reflective warning triangle behind the vehicle. The situation shown in the photograph is an example of correctly fulfilling this obligation.
