Question 7256

On this conventional road (carretera convencional), the vehicle has parked on the right off the road. Is it parked correctly?

  1. No, because on a road outside a built-up area you cannot park off the road.
  2. No, because it blocks the way for animals that might be passing through.
  3. Yes, because it has parked completely off the road.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, because it has parked completely off the road.

Yes. On a conventional road (carretera convencional), parking off the road on the right, like the blue passenger car in the image, is what the rule requires, as long as parking there is not prohibited or dangerous. You must not occupy the roadway or the usable part of the shoulder.
