Correct answer

  • BNo, en ningún caso.No, never.
Explanation

On roads outside built-up areas, stopping and parking must always be done off the carriageway, on the right-hand side, leaving the usable part of the hard shoulder free (Article 90 of the General Traffic Regulations). On two-way carriageways you may never stop or park on the left-hand side.
