What distance should the warning triangle be placed if a vehicle breaks down on any road other than an autobahn?

When a vehicle breaks down on a road other than an autobahn, the warning triangle should be placed at a distance of at least 100 meters (approximately 328 feet) behind the vehicle. This distance ensures that approaching drivers have ample time to react to the hazard. Additionally, if visibility is poor, the triangle should be placed closer, but still at a safe distance to alert oncoming traffic. Always ensure that the triangle is set up in a location where it can be easily seen.
