What to do if your car breaks down in Annemasse?
Step-by-step guide: secure the scene, call a breakdown service, contact your insurer. Tips specific to Greater Geneva and the A40.
If you break down in Annemasse, the first step is to secure the scene: switch on your hazard lights, put on your high-visibility vest and place your warning triangle if you are on a public road.
If you are on the A40 motorway, stay behind the safety barrier and use the orange emergency call boxes. Do not attempt repairs on the hard shoulder.
Then contact a local breakdown service. Give your exact location (address, car park, motorway exit number) and the nature of the breakdown. A free quote will be provided before any work begins.
At the same time, contact your insurer if you want cover. Most policies let you choose your breakdown provider, especially off the motorway network.
