Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video you are driving along a road outside town behind a white car; the centre of the roadway is marked by a double solid line and the right edge by a broken line, there is a pavement with a railing alongside, and ahead of you sign A-1 warns of a bend to the right. You must not stop your vehicle on the roadway at this place. The answer is: no.
The Road Traffic Act prohibits stopping a vehicle on the roadway next to a broken line marking the edge of the roadway, and on the roadway and the shoulder next to a solid line marking the edge of the roadway, and also along a solid line if this would force other drivers to drive onto it. An edge line means that the road authority has excluded stopping on this section - here, in addition, the narrow lane next to the double solid line and the approaching bend limit visibility. You will find a place to park in a designated car park or in a lay-by.
