Revision question · Carrying passengers

Your bus has broken down on a motorway after dark. Which lights should you use to help other drivers see the stopped vehicle?

Revision material from the imported DVSA bank includes source-checked Lanekind learning corrections. These corrections are not newly issued official examination questions, and practice does not reproduce a live test paper.

Answer options

Full-beam headlights only

No lights, to save the battery

Hazard warning lights and sidelights

Reversing lights instead of hazard lights

Hazard warning lights and sidelightsThis was the right answer

Use hazard warning lights and, after dark or in poor visibility, sidelights. Protect passengers according to whether safe evacuation is possible; do not routinely redistribute them to the front of the bus.
