In which specific places is stopping and parking prohibited due to reduced visibility?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to General Traffic Regulations, it is prohibited to stop and park on curves and grade breaks with reduced visibility, and in their vicinity if visibility is insufficient. Why? The fundamental reason is safety: a vehicle stopped in a blind spot (such as just after a grade break or in the middle of a sharp curve) cannot be perceived in time by other drivers, which can lead to serious rear-end collisions or head-on crashes when others try to swerve to avoid it. Regarding the other options: In loading and unloading zones, stopping is generally allowed (less than 2 minutes, without leaving the vehicle), even though parking is prohibited. In bicycle parking areas, stopping is prohibited because it obstructs vulnerable users, but the primary reason is not 'reduced visibility' as stated in the question.
