In Austria, dial 112 for general emergencies or 120 for ARBOE breakdown assistance. Save these numbers in your phone.
If your vehicle has trouble, signal early, move to the hard shoulder or a safe spot, and turn on your hazard lights immediately.
Place your warning triangle at least 100 meters behind your vehicle on highways. Wear a reflective vest when outside the car.
Routine maintenance of tires, brakes, fluids, and lights significantly reduces the chance of a breakdown.
Check weather and road conditions, plan rest stops every two hours, and ensure your fuel tank is at least a quarter full.
