Question 3933

Is stopping permitted at intersections and in their vicinity on roads outside a built-up area?

  1. It is only allowed when it does not hinder other vehicles from turning.
  2. It is not allowed when doing so creates a danger due to lack of visibility.
  3. Yes, it is allowed in all cases.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: It is not allowed when doing so creates a danger due to lack of visibility.

On a road outside a built-up area, you must not stop at or near an intersection if you create a hazard by blocking visibility, or if you make turning difficult. In the image, the white van stopped next to the intersection blocks the view of the black passenger car waiting on the side road.
