Product Description
Product Description
Did you know that carrying a warning triangle in your car is a legal requirement in many countries on the Continent? In Spain, one warning triangle is compulsory for non-Spanish registered vehicles and two for Spanish registered vehicles. However, drivers of non-Spanish registered vehicles should consider carrying two triangles as local officials may impose on-the-spot fines if there is only one. Don't get caught out; "AA Warning Triangles" are highly reflective EC-approved models which warn other drivers of potential hazards in an accident or breakdown situation and come in a protective plastic container.

At only £3.80 you can't really go wrong and with Amazon Prime's next-day delivery it's even more fantastic!
The triangle is pretty lightweight even when in its storage box. The orange part of the triangle in the photograph is made of material whilst the outer red parts are traditional plastic reflectors. The metal frame makes it sturdy enough for what it's designed for.
My biggest query prior to ordering was how to store it in the car - the Amazon product page didn't have the box dimensions listed so you can't tell how big/small it is until you have bought it. So, with that in mind, the dimensions of the storage box are: 44cm x 5.5cm x 3.5cm.

I already had a triangle that came as standard with my car but because I planned to motor to Spain I decided to get a second one in order to avoid any roadside hassle from the Spanish authorities - apparently you are required to place them about 30 metres behind AND in front of the vehicle. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this item - it is robust and well constructed, and heavier than I expected, and WILL stand up to a strong wind. It folds up neatly into its storage case. I can't see how this can be sold for £3 including delivery, and still make a profit. Buy it.

The item is a bit lightweight and flimsy compared to more expensive versions but hopefully, one will not need to use it very often.

Slight doubt about the description, but OK
Seems a bit flimsy, but it sits firmly on the ground. I think the logo "AA" is a bit misleading as there is nothing to indicate that this is an Automobile Association... Read more

Why were they not available before?
A really good product for foreign travel. Very compact and the price is unbelievable. I had one from the AA 15 years ago that cost more than triple the price of this one!

Small, useful thing.
It's required to have it with you in some European countries. It doesn't take much space and isn't really expensive too.

Great value for money!
Compact, lightweight and it will do the job if required. The packaging was a little on the light side though.

Superb.
Given that when I am in Spain I have to permanently carry these items, they are neatly stowed away in their own carry cases. They are also more than adequate for the job.
