Right after crossing a railroad crossing, you want to stop briefly at the right edge of the road. Under the Road Traffic Act, within how many meters of the edge of a railroad crossing are both stopping and parking prohibited?
💡 Hint
The distances within which both stopping and parking are prohibited are split into 5 meters and 10 meters depending on the place (Article 32 of the Road Traffic Act). Work out whether the edge of a railroad crossing is grouped with crosswalks or with intersection edges and road corners.
Answer: ④
Explanation
Under Road Traffic Act Article 32 item 5, both stopping and parking are prohibited within 10 meters of the edge of a railroad crossing or a crosswalk. A car standing right before or after a crossing can trap following vehicles on the tracks or make it hard to check for trains. 5 meters is the distance for intersection edges, road corners and similar places.
