Whether you break down in the middle of a city, on a remote country lane, on a busy A road or a quieter B road, there are some basic rules you should follow while you wait to be rescued:

• If possible , get your car off the road or pull over to the left.
• Put your hazards  lights on.
• If you’re on a busy road, it will usually be safer to wait outside your car. Exit your car through the door furthest away from the traffic.
• Wear a high vis jacket, so other drivers can see you.
• Don’t stand between your car and oncoming traffic, and don’t block your car lights from other drivers.
• If you break down on motorway, pull over to the hard shoulder and turn your wheels to the left.
• Leave your car through the left-hand door and make sure any passengers do so too.
• Stay behind the barrier of the hard shoulder.
• Stay calm A2B Recovery Northampton will be with you in no time
