DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to the DGT's traffic regulations and the definitions of the parts of the road, a lay-by is the widening of the roadway intended for vehicles to stop without blocking or disturbing the traffic of other users. It must not be confused with a stop reserved for regular public passenger service (which has a specific and exclusive use), nor with a deceleration lane or exit from the road, designed to leave the main road gradually.
