Your vehicle has broken down on the autobahn. What must you remember when having it towed away?

When your vehicle breaks down on the autobahn in Germany, it is required by law to leave the autobahn at the next exit instead of continuing towed along the road. This is for safety reasons, as towing a vehicle on the autobahn creates additional hazards. Additionally, both the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle must have their hazard warning lights turned on during the tow to alert other drivers of the unusual situation. Continuing to travel further on the autobahn while being towed is not allowed because it increases the risk of accidents and disrupts the flow of fast-moving traffic. Remembering these rules helps ensure safety for everyone on the autobahn.
