Lanterns, or Road Flares) as follows:
1. Place the 1st indicator 10 feet behind the RV
on the o-door side (road side).
2. Place the 2nd indicator 100 feet behind the RV
in the center of the lane.
3. Place the 3rd indicator 100 feet in front of the RV
in the center of the lane.

• Curves and/or hills may aect the safe placement
of the warning indicators.

of a roadside emergency, ALWAYS STAND:
• OFF of the road, and
