During loading or unloading operations, is it permitted to deposit goods on the roadway, shoulder, or pedestrian zones?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is No. General Traffic Regulations establish strict rules to prevent obstacles on public roads. Key regulations: Prohibition of deposit: It is forbidden to deposit goods on the public road (roadway, shoulder, or sidewalks). The load must not touch the ground of the road during the operation. Direct transfer: Goods must be moved directly from the vehicle to the property/destination or vice versa. Safety: Although loading and unloading must be done from the side of the vehicle closest to the edge of the roadway (to avoid invading traffic), this does not authorize leaving objects on the ground, as they pose a physical danger to pedestrians and other vehicles. Therefore, the options suggesting it is allowed 'if not disturbing' or 'near the curb' are incorrect because the prohibition on depositing objects on the road is absolute in this context.
