Practice question

If you stall or break down on the highway and cannot restart, what should you do?

  1. Leave the vehicle immediately
  2. Stay with the vehicle and ask a responsible person to find help
  3. Try to fix your vehicle as quickly as possible
  4. Signal other drivers to push your vehicle

Answer: B — Stay with the vehicle and ask a responsible person to find help

If you leave your vehicle immediately, you put yourself in danger of being hit by oncoming traffic. If you try to fix your vehicle without proper knowledge or tools, you may cause further damage or waste time when you could be seeking help. Asking a responsible person to find help is the best course of action in this situation as they can ensure your safety and assist you in finding appropriate help for your vehicle. Pushing your vehicle with other drivers can also be dangerous and should only be done as a last resort.
