Question 682 in the bank

What is the meaning of the black-white marking besides the road?

A diagonal curb strip painted in alternating black and white segments, on a grey background. Meaning: The marking emphasizes the presence of sidewalks and traffic islands next to the road.
  1. Correct answer: The marking emphasizes the presence of sidewalks and traffic islands next to the road.
  2. Stopping and parking place before a level crossing.
  3. Stopping and parking is absolutely prohibited.
  4. Parking space regulated by the local authority.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: The marking emphasizes the presence of sidewalks and traffic islands next to the road.

A black-and-white painted curb does not regulate stopping or parking. It only makes sidewalks and built traffic islands next to the road easier to see, so drivers notice them in time, even at night or in poor visibility. Parking regulated by the local authority is marked blue-and-white, and a ban on stopping and parking is marked red-and-white.
