Question 6391

Stopping in double file is considered obstructive when...

  1. the distance between the vehicle and the opposite edge of the roadway is less than 3.5 meters.
  2. the driver gets out of the vehicle.
  3. the distance between the vehicle and the opposite edge of the roadway is less than 3 meters.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: the distance between the vehicle and the opposite edge of the roadway is less than 3 meters.

Stopping alongside a parked vehicle seriously obstructs traffic if less than 3 meters remain between your vehicle and the opposite edge of the roadway, or if others cannot get through. If you get out and leave the car, that counts as parking, and double-parking is always prohibited.
