explanation
On the approach to tunnels a sign will usually show a local radio channel. It should give a warning of any incidents or congestion in the tunnel ahead. Many radios can be set to automatically pick up traffic announcements and local frequencies. If you have to tune the radio manually don’t be distracted while doing so. Incidents in tunnels can lead to serious casualties. The greatest hazard is fire. Getting an advance warning of problems could save your life and others.

When you approach a tunnel, you should put off your sunglasses, turn the lights on, maintain your distance, listen to the local radio traffic, and watch out for phones and exits for emergencies.
If your own car is on fire:
- Make use of the hazard lights.
- If you can, drive out of the tunnel. Do not reverse or make a U-turn.
- Drive to a lay-by, an emergency lane, or pull over as far to the nearside as you can if you are unable to drive out of the tunnel.
- Turn off your engine but leave the key in.
- Call for help via an emergency phone.
- Avoid opening the bonnet since it can be hot and might spread the fire.
- Unless the fire has just begun, don't attempt to extinguish it yourself.
- If you are unable to put out the fire, quickly leave through the emergency exits.
- Don't waste time collecting personal items.
- Assist injured people in getting to safety.
