Show the correct answer

Correct answer

NO

Explanation

In the video you are driving on a motorway through a section with temporary traffic management; there are red and white barriers on the left, and the right edge of your lane is marked by a solid yellow line. You are not allowed to stop at the yellow line on the right. The answer is: no.

The Road Traffic Act prohibits stopping or parking on a motorway and an expressway anywhere other than in places designated for this purpose, and also stopping on the roadway next to a solid line marking the edge of the roadway; the Regulation on road signs and signals adds that yellow road markings used during temporary traffic management take priority over white ones. None of the rules lets you stop here: you are on a motorway, in a narrowed section, and the line on the right is a solid edge line. A stationary car on a narrow section without a shoulder would block the lane and force others to brake harshly. In the event of a breakdown, you switch on the hazard warning lights and try to roll to the end of the narrowed section or to an emergency lay-by, and if that is impossible - you put out the warning triangle 100 m behind the car and go behind the barriers. You always make a planned stop on a motorway at a rest area (MOP).

Legal basis: Art. 49 para. 3 and para. 1 point 5 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym); § 85 para. 3 and § 86 para. 8 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
