The V-16 hazard pre-warning device is an amber-coloured, autonomously powered (battery or rechargeable battery) apparatus that must be placed on the highest part of the immobilised vehicle, ensuring maximum visibility.
Currently, the V-16 is the only legal option for signalling an immobilised vehicle or an obstacle on the road, with pre-warning triangles now obsolete.
