Alberta Class 3 Drivers License Practice Exam

What is the primary purpose of warning devices at a breakdown site?

Alert oncoming traffic and prevent a secondary crash Mark the breakdown location only at night Provide lighting for the driver Increase fuel efficiency

Correct Answer:

Alert oncoming traffic and prevent a secondary crash

Explanation:

Warning devices are placed to alert oncoming traffic that there is a breakdown ahead, giving drivers enough time to slow down and maneuver safely. This creates a warning zone that reduces the risk of a secondary crash involving the stopped vehicle. They’re used in all lighting conditions, so the goal isn’t to light the driver’s path or to improve fuel efficiency.
