Question 18 in the bank

The following picture shows a pavement. Which of the following sentences is correct?

View through a windscreen of a city road with white transverse stripes, a man in a white shirt at the road edge, a yellow-white minibus left, traffic light and pavement right.
  1. Motorcycles are permitted to use the pavement instead of the road.
  2. Correct answer: The pavement is designed for pedestrians only.
  3. Private passenger vehicles are always permitted to park temporarily on the pavement, when there is no parking space on the road.
  4. Bicyclists are permitted to ride on the pavement as well.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: The pavement is designed for pedestrians only.

The pavement is the part of the road set aside for people on foot, while vehicles must use the lanes of the roadway. A motorcycle may not ride on it, and a private car may not park on it even briefly unless a sign or marking specifically allows it. A lack of parking spaces on the road is no excuse for using the pavement.
