How to Position Safety Triangles

A vehicle with a GVM of more than 12 tonnes must carry three portable warning triangles. Tegral stocks kits of these, seen here. These triangles must be used when the vehicle has stopped, broken down or its load has fallen on the roadand cannot be seen (in all directions for at least 200-300m) by other road users.


When this occurs on a divided or one-way road, the driver must place:

  • a warning triangle at the side of the vehicle or fallen load
  • two warning triangles at the rear of the vehicle or fallen load.


When this occurs on any other road, drivers must place warning triangles at the:

  • side of the vehicle or fallen load
  • front of the vehicle or fallen load
  • rear of the vehicle or fallen load.

Contact Tegral Transport Equipment if you have any queries regarding safety triangles. We are always willing to assist.
