Drivers must be prepared for breakdowns, fires, or accidents in confined spaces like tunnels or elevated bridges. EU law mandates emergency protocols and equipment.
Carry fire extinguisher, warning triangle, and reflective vest at all times.
Know location of emergency exits and SOS phones in tunnels.
In case of fire, stop engine, leave keys, and evacuate immediately.
On bridges, use hazard lights and avoid walking on the carriageway.
Emergency drills are part of tunnel safety officer protocols in Germany.
Purpose for Training: To equip drivers with the knowledge and confidence to respond safely during emergencies in tunnels or on bridges.
