In this situation, do the red reflective point elements define the right edge of the roadway?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo you are driving at night on a road with reflectors shining along it: white on the left and red on the right. These are reflective road studs set into the road surface. The red ones mark the right edge of the roadway, so there is no more traffic lane beyond them. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals says directly that red reflective road studs placed on the roadway mark the right edge of the roadway, while the left edge and the traffic lanes may be marked with white or yellow studs. So in the dark, the colour tells you where the asphalt ends: you always have the red ones on your right-hand side, and the white ones on the left or between the lanes.
Legal basis: § 85 para. 1 and 4 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
