Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Objects which might disturb or endanger passersby or their vehicles should not be placed or left on a road.
Placing or leaving an object on the road is forbidden whenever it might disturb or endanger road users or their vehicles. Such objects can cause sudden swerving, emergency braking or crashes. Marking the object with a reflector does not make leaving it legal, and no rule allows leaving it for a set number of hours or after notifying a ministry.
