An emergency stop sign is critically important for road safety.
In the event of a forced stop of a vehicle due to a technical malfunction or accident, correct use of the emergency stop sign helps prevent dangerous situations.
The sign warns other road users of the danger, allowing them to avoid collisions. It reduces the risk of subsequent accidents, especially during the night or in poor weather conditions. According to point 9.10 of the Ukrainian Traffic Rules, the sign must be placed at a distance of at least 20 meters in populated areas and 40 meters outside them. This ensures safe traffic flow and maintains order on the road.
Take care of your safety and the safety of those around you.
