What factor determines whether a yellow line on the edge of the roadway prohibits only parking or also stopping?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The key to distinguishing the prohibition lies in the type of line. A solid (continuous) yellow line strictly prohibits both stopping and parking. In contrast, a broken (discontinuous) yellow line prohibits parking but allows stopping (immobilization for less than 2 minutes without the driver leaving the vehicle). Therefore, knowing if a maneuver is allowed depends exclusively on whether the line is solid or broken.
