Question 6307
When is a parked vehicle considered a serious obstacle to traffic?
- When the parking time exceeds 15 minutes.
- When it is parked in a zone reserved for loading or unloading, outside the indicated hours.
- When it is double-parked with no driver present.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: When it is double-parked with no driver present.
Double-parking with no driver present seriously obstructs traffic because the properly parked car cannot get out, like the gray car in the image, blocked in by the blue one. Parking in a loading and unloading zone is a serious obstruction during its operating hours, not outside them. No fixed length of time, such as 15 minutes, makes parking a serious obstruction.
