How must the vehicle be positioned when stopping on urban roads if there is no signage ordering otherwise?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is parallel to the edge of the roadway. According to general traffic regulations for urban areas, both stopping and parking must be done by positioning the vehicle parallel to the curb or edge of the road. This ensures the vehicle occupies the minimum amount of space necessary, preventing obstruction of traffic flow. Parking perpendicular (bay parking) or diagonally is only permitted when road markings or vertical signs explicitly indicate that specific layout.
