About Bridge and tunnel: side wind, the bridge light, and the tunnel emergency procedures: which statement is correct?

  1. At the bridge light you only need to stop if the red light is flashing, not if it is burning continuously (steady) red.
  2. You may only switch on your dipped headlights once you actually enter the tunnel, not earlier.
  3. ✓ Because the wind also passes underneath, a bridge's road surface cools faster and freezes earlier than ordinary roads.
  4. If your own car catches fire in a tunnel, your best option is to turn around or reverse to the nearest tunnel entrance.

Correct answer: Because the wind also passes underneath, a bridge's road surface cools faster and freezes earlier than ordinary roads.
