Which of the following is NOT a case in which stopping or parking is permitted on an expressway or automobile road?
On expressways, etc., stopping and parking are prohibited in principle, and you may stop only when a legal exception applies (Article 64 of the Road Traffic Act). Keep in mind that the exceptions concern official instructions or permission and urgent duties, and that pedestrians may not use expressways (Article 63).
Answer: ②
Explanation
Article 64 of the Road Traffic Act prohibits stopping and parking on expressways and automobile roads, with exceptions such as following a police officer's direction, places allowed by a safety sign or bus stops, and fire trucks carrying out firefighting. Letting a passenger out is not a breakdown or unavoidable reason, so stopping on the shoulder for it is not allowed. Moreover, pedestrians may not use expressways or automobile roads (Article 63), so the person getting out is put in danger.
