Question 15 in the bank

When a no stopping sign (433) is placed on the right side of a two-way highway:

A round sign with a red border and blue background, crossed by one diagonal red stripe with white edges from upper left to lower right.
  1. Stopping is prohibited on both sides of the vehicle.
  2. Correct answer: Stopping is prohibited on the right side of the roadway and on the hard shoulder.
  3. Stopping is prohibited on the roadway only.
  4. Stopping is prohibited on the hard shoulder only.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Stopping is prohibited on the right side of the roadway and on the hard shoulder.

A sign placed on the right side of the road applies to that side, meaning the right side of the roadway in your direction of travel, and also to the hard shoulder next to it. On a two-way road it does not cover the opposite side, which serves oncoming traffic. Limiting the ban to the roadway only or the shoulder only is therefore wrong.
