In a long tunnel, a vehicle ahead catches fire and traffic stops; your car cannot move forward any more. What is the most appropriate action?
💡 Hint
In a tunnel fire, the greatest danger is the smoke rather than the flames. Consider whether staying in the car is safe, whether rescue and fire crews need to be able to move stopped cars, and what happens with vehicles behind if you turn around inside the tunnel.
Answer: ①
Explanation
In a tunnel fire, smoke is the greatest danger, so do not stay in the car; quickly move to an emergency exit or evacuation passage. Leaving the key lets rescue and fire crews move the car to clear access. Turning around or reversing in a tunnel invites secondary accidents with vehicles behind, and walking in the direction the smoke spreads traps you in it.
