While driving, part of your vehicle's load falls onto the road — must you stop to mark it?

Those who have created an obstacle or hazard on the road must remove it as soon as possible, taking in the meantime the necessary measures so that it can be noticed and does not hinder traffic. While the road is being cleared, every driver shall place the hazard pre-warning device to warn of said obstacle. The V-16 hazard pre-warning device is an amber-coloured autonomous luminous device, type-approved and with geolocation, that operates on its own power supply (battery or rechargeable battery). It must be placed on the highest part of the immobilised vehicle, ensuring maximum visibility. Currently, the V-16 is the only legal option for marking an immobilised vehicle or an obstacle on the road, with warning triangles now obsolete.
