Correct answer

  • ASí.Yes.
Explanation

If the vehicle is immobilised because of an emergency, a breakdown for example, it is an emergency stop, so it is correct for it to be stopped on the hard shoulder even though the hard shoulder is usable. If it were voluntary stopping or parking, it would be prohibited.
