Show the correct answer

Correct answer

NO

Explanation

In the video, you are approaching a junction at a road interchange: from the left a road comes in from under a flyover, the islands at the entry are marked with red-and-white guide boards, on the left there is an area excluded from traffic, and your road turns right along barriers, with a solid edge line. Parking in this place is not allowed. The answer is: no.

The Road Traffic Act prohibits stopping a vehicle at a junction and less than 10 m from a junction, and on the roadway next to a solid line marking the edge of the roadway; since stopping is prohibited, parking - that is, a standstill of the vehicle for more than one minute - is certainly prohibited. The Regulation on road signs and signals also states that entering and stopping on the area excluded from traffic P-21 are prohibited. Stopping and parking are in general allowed only where the vehicle is visible from a sufficient distance and does not cause danger or impede traffic - and here the road curves behind the barriers, so a stationary car would be seen at the last moment. If you need to stop, you drive through the junction and look for a place beyond it, at the right-hand edge, where the edge line is broken or there is a lay-by.

Legal basis: Art. 49 para. 1 point 1 and 5, Art. 46 para. 1 and Art. 2 point 30 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym); § 90 para. 5 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
