A sudden car breakdown on highways (like the 6th Ring Road) can be a scary and dangerous experience. Here are the top 5 steps to follow immediately:
1. Don't Brake Abruptly
Keep calm, gradually lift your foot off the gas pedal, and use your turn signals to steer towards the right shoulder.
2. Turn on Hazard Lights
Once stopped, immediately turn on your hazard lights to warn other drivers that your vehicle is disabled.
3. Stay Inside or Outside?
If the road is busy, staying inside the car with your seatbelt on is the safest option. If you must exit, always use the door away from traffic.
4. Place the Warning Triangle
If it's safe to exit, place your reflective warning triangle at least 45 meters behind your vehicle.
5. Call for Immediate Help
Do not attempt to fix the car yourself on a busy highway. The best solution is to call Wenshak. We provide 24/7 towing services in Kuwait and will reach you in record time to safely recover your vehicle.
