Correct answer
- ANo.No.
Article 94.1.a of the General Traffic Regulations prohibits stopping in tunnels, underpasses and stretches of road covered by the «Tunnel» sign, and where stopping is prohibited, parking is also prohibited. A wider section of hard shoulder does not make that spot a place where you may stop.
