Correct answer
- ASí, porque estoy fuera de la calzada.Yes, because I am off the carriageway.
Explanation
You can stop and park off the public road. In this case, as there is no hard shoulder, you can park off the carriageway. (On interurban roads, stopping or parking on the hard shoulder is prohibited.) Halting on the hard shoulder is only allowed because of a breakdown or because the driver or passengers are unwell.
