Question 221 in the bank

What is the correct manner for leaving a vehicle standing in a roadway?

  1. There is no restriction on how to leave a vehicle standing in a roadway.
  2. Correct answer: Parallel to the road’s edge or according to the road’s marking.
  3. Perpendicularly to the road’s edge.
  4. In an angle of no more than thirty degrees from the kerb.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Parallel to the road’s edge or according to the road’s marking.

A vehicle that is standing or parked in a roadway must be parallel to the road's edge, so that it does not stick out into the traffic lane and obstruct traffic. When a road marking indicates a different manner, for example perpendicular or diagonal, the vehicle is left standing according to the marking. Without such a marking, a vehicle must not be left perpendicular or at an angle.
