May the vehicle left on the road beyond this sign be removed at the cost of the owner?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
On the right there is sign B-36 "no stopping", and below it plate T-24 with a picture of a car on a tow truck. This plate is not a decoration: it informs you that a vehicle left in the place where the ban applies will be removed from the road at the owner's expense. Towing plus a fine is a real scenario, not an empty threat.
The Regulation on road signs and signals says that plate T-24 under sign B-35 or B-36 indicates that a vehicle left in a place where the ban applies will be removed from the road at the owner's expense. The Road Traffic Act directly lists the case of leaving a vehicle in a place covered by a sign indicating that a parked vehicle will be removed at the owner's expense. Collecting the car from the guarded car park is paid for separately.
Legal basis: § 28 para. 2 and 5 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 130a para. 1 point 5 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
