Are you allowed in this situation to park the vehicle on the hard shoulder?

Description

Legal basis: Art. 49 para. 1 pt. 5 of the Road Traffic Act

Explanation

Correct answer: No

The continuous edge line (sign P-7b) visible on the right side of the roadway prohibits crossing it, which prevents legal entry onto the shoulder for parking. Additionally, according to Art. 49 para. 1 pt. 5, it is prohibited to stop a vehicle on the roadway next to a continuous line marking its edge. In this situation, you are therefore not allowed to park here.
