Is the performance of a temporary activity, such as a photo shoot, allowed if it hinders traffic?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations state that performing any activity on the road (roadworks, sporting events, filming, photo shoots, etc.) that hinders traffic or compromises safety is prohibited, unless the corresponding administrative authorization is obtained. The general rule is clear: the road is for driving. The fact that the activity is brief or takes place on a holiday does not exempt one from complying with this rule, as the determining factor is whether or not it affects traffic flow and safety.
