Going to Spain?

[OriginalBigAl]

New Spanish regs state ,that as from Jan 26 the red warning triangle will be abolished and must be replaced with an approved orange flashing light which magnetically attaches to the roof. This also has a GPS and some sort of Sim card which can alert the emergency services to your position . All vehicles in or entering Spain must be equipped with one . If that's going to be your destination, worth looking into.
