When should you use your vehicle's hazard lights?

  1. When you need to make a sudden stop.

  2. When you are double-parked temporarily.

  3. When you are driving in heavy rain.

  4. When your vehicle breaks down and is stopped on the side of the road.

The correct answer is: When your vehicle breaks down and is stopped on the side of the road.

Using your vehicle's hazard lights is only allowed when your vehicle breaks down and is stopped on the side of the road. Hazard lights indicate to other drivers that there is an emergency or potential danger, so they should not be used for making regular stops or for driving in inclement weather. In case of a sudden stop, it is important to use your brake lights instead to indicate to other drivers that you are slowing down or stopping. Double-parking is also not a valid reason to use hazard lights as it can be misleading and may disrupt the flow of traffic. When driving in heavy rain, it is recommended to use your headlights instead of hazard lights to improve visibility for both yourself and other drivers.
