A hazard warning device comprises a generally triangular display portion (6) produced by a stamping operation from sheet plastics material, and which is provided on one side (7) at least with red and white bands of highly reflective material. Secured adjacent to a lower edge (8) of the display portion, one on either side thereof, are two hinges (10), each hinge carrying a supporting portion (12). The supporting portions (12) are also formed of plastics sheet material, preferably thicker than the display portion (6). The two supporting portions may be moved about their hinges into positions for stowage, in which they lie against the display portion (6), one on either side thereof. For use, the device is lifted by the upper end of the display portion (6), and held generally vertically, allowing the supporting portions (12) to drop downwardly, and the warning device placed against the road. Desirably the device comprises interengaging means to assist in the retention of the warning device in its erected condition. If desired the display portion (6) may carry at its upper end a battery operated light. |
