Question 1740 in the bank

Is it permitted to push a vehicle, while its engine is shut-off, into a roadway to which vehicle entry is prohibited?

  1. Yes, when the engine works on neutral gear.
  2. Yes, but it should be lifted to the sidewalk.
  3. Correct answer: No. pushing It is the same as driving.
  4. Yes, when the engine is not working.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: No. pushing It is the same as driving.

By law, a person pushing a vehicle is treated the same as someone driving it, so every driving restriction also applies to pushing. If a roadway is closed to vehicles, you may not bring a vehicle into it, whether the engine is off or running in neutral. Lifting it onto the sidewalk is no solution either, since the sidewalk is for pedestrians.
