Show answer
Correct answer
- BPor razones de emergencia.For emergency reasons.
Explanation
On interurban roads, stopping and parking must be done off the carriageway, on the right-hand side, leaving the usable part of the hard shoulder clear (Article 90.1 of the General Traffic Regulations). Only for emergency reasons may the vehicle be brought to a halt in that area.
