Common Tourist Breakdown Situations

• Flat battery after the car is parked for hours

• Overheating on longer drives
• Mechanical issues in unfamiliar areas
• Running out of fuel or dashboard warning lights

What To Do If You Break Down While Travelling

1. Pull in safely and turn on hazard lights.
2. Stay away from traffic (especially on narrow roads).
3. Share your exact location (map pin or nearest town/sign).
