In this situation, can you stop a car on the sidewalk just in front of a public transport stop?

Description

§ 90 para. 1 of the Regulation on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws of 2002, No. 170, item 1393, as amended).
Explanation

Correct answer: No

The P-17 "bus stop line" (yellow zigzag) road marking visible on the carriageway defines the length of the stop. According to Art. 49 para. 1 pt. 9 of the Road Traffic Act, stopping a vehicle is prohibited at a distance of less than 15 m from the post or board marking the stop. This prohibition applies to the entire width of the road, meaning it is in effect on both the carriageway and the pavement.
