Explanation
According to Article 36.1 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC), special vehicles with a MAM of no more than 3,500 kg, like this tractor, must use the hard shoulder on their right if it is driveable and wide enough. This is not an exception for breakdowns, but the place where they must travel.
