If the vehicle's oil-pressure gauge is reading low or the red oil-pressure warning light comes on, what should a driver do?
Explanation
"Oil circulation is essential for the safe running of the vehicles engine. If the warning lights or gauges indicate that the oil or the oil-pressure is low, the driver should stop as soon as they can in safe place, check the oil level, and top up if necessary. Continuing to drive may damage the engine. If the problem is not just related to the oil level, have the vehicle checked by a competent person."
