- 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.

Helping my daughter with the theory side of the test. Only wish we’d found it earlier on! Even I’m learning/getting reminded of what things mean again!
