Spain Orange Warning light (again)

[Peavy]

Does anyone have a link to a good one of these flashing beacons

I hope I never need one but best to be safe I suppose

Here.

Will someone please explain to me why the emergency flashers already built into every vehicle, don't count?.

What if someone rear ends you and your lights aren’t working, or your battery is knackered.

Exactly what happened to me,

I\ve yet to see anyone place a warning triangle correctly....the little 15inch device, often placed 30 or 40 metres from the back of a 6ft wide, 5 ft high vehicle. It's almost as though 99% of drivers don't understand the point of it and simply have one because the law says so. I'll happily buy one of these devices and hope I never need to use it.

Being as they are not needed for foreign vans its not a problem. BUSBY..

But then if they wish to be funny they can fine you for not being stopped as the minimum speed is 50% of the posted limit on most roads

Hi Nigel...in the event of needing to attach the ..I turn it on and placed it on my sat dish...either through an open roof light or pop up my ladder...

What are you doing when we remove that?

And what are the police going to do. Pop over and change a tyre, recover you. If I need the police I’d use my phone and call them.

Actually ,yes they do especially if you are on the autovia.They will park a 100m or so behind with all lights flashing & protect your vehicle ,hopefully, by moving traffic over. If in a seriously dangerous place they will move the vehicle .

A good question Richard...I (We) will re- evaluate, and between us come to a very workable solution..I have a very strong suction cup fixing, that might be adapted to accept the beacon
Actually the fixing of a beacon hopefully isn't going to be an everyday occurrence...

Of course if you really need the police, you call 112. This system is not designed to inform straight to the police, here's a diagram of how it should work:

Edit: July 2021 is the date the previous beacon (without connection) was enforced.

Good illustration Peavy this is exactly how my car SOS system works...I push a button and I get a call through the in car telephone..asking what is needed..
It's also activated by the deployment of an airbag...they call you...if they get no reply...then instant response is implement...your location is known by GPS location...the , system will work the same..
