  3. Yes.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, it is prohibited.

It is prohibited. You must not throw or leave anything on the road that obstructs anyone driving, stopping, or parking, even if it does not damage the road or its equipment. Damaging the road is another situation covered by the same prohibition. In the image, emptying the ashtray out the window is also prohibited because cigarette butts can cause a fire.
