Following are some safety tips to help minimize safety hazards if your vehicle stalls or is involved in a collision:

• If possible, move the vehicle clear of traffic and park all four wheels off the travelled portion of the highway.
• Use the starter and low gear to pull your vehicle to the shoulder if you have a standard shift
• If your vehicle is stalled on a highway or if your speed is well below thespeed limit, use the four-way flashers when your vehicle is coming to a stop.
• If you have reflectorized signs and/or flares, place them 60 metres in front and behind the vehicle, so that the danger may be seen by approaching drivers.
• If you cannot move your vehicle off the road, raise the hood to warn other motorists.
