On an interurban road, has a driver parked correctly if they leave their car on the drivable shoulder?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is no. According to General Traffic Regulations, on interurban roads (outside built-up areas), stopping and parking must always be carried out outside the roadway and outside the drivable part of the shoulder, placing the vehicle on the right side of the road. The drivable shoulder must remain free for pedestrians, cycles, mopeds, animal-drawn vehicles, or emergencies. Parking there obstructs traffic and creates hazardous situations. The option mentioning 'less than 2 minutes' is incorrect because that definition corresponds to 'stopping' (parada), which is also prohibited on the drivable shoulder of interurban roads if it is possible to move the vehicle completely off the road.
