Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo you are driving at night on a road where you can see a row of white reflective road studs on the left and a row of red ones on the right. The white studs mark the left edge of the roadway. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that red reflective road studs placed on the roadway mark the right edge of the roadway, and the left edge of the roadway and the lanes may be marked with white or yellow studs. This arrangement is used on one-way roadways, for example on motorways: red on the right, white on the left. Thanks to this, at night and in the rain, when painted lines are hard to see, you know at once where the roadway ends and on which side the opposite traffic is.
Legal basis: § 85 para. 4 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
