What must you do to avoid endangering others by equipment or load which has fallen off your vehicle?

You answered correctly. If equipment or a load falls off your vehicle, you must remove the fallen parts yourself to eliminate the danger, if it is safe to do so. Additionally, you should secure the area to prevent accidents and immediately inform either the road service or the police. This ensures traffic safety and prevents further hazards to others. Simply proceeding and informing the municipal office later is not sufficient, because the danger must be addressed right away. In similar situations, always act quickly to secure the scene and notify the proper authorities.
