Question 201 in the bank

Is it permitted to stand or park a vehicle on the sidewalk (pavement)?

  1. Correct answer: No, except in a regulated place marked with a sign..
  2. It is absolutely forbidden.
  3. Yes, it is permitted on an interlocking-stone-surface sidewalk.
  4. Yes, it is permitted on a sidewalk with a minimum width of 3 meters.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: No, except in a regulated place marked with a sign..

Sidewalks are meant for pedestrians, so stopping or parking a vehicle on them is generally forbidden. The only exception is a place the authorities have specifically arranged for parking and marked with a sign. Neither the sidewalk's width nor its surface, such as interlocking stones, makes parking there legal. Saying it is absolutely forbidden is wrong, because it ignores these signposted places.
