Zorluk: OrtaWaiting and Parking

When parking a car at night in a designated lay-by adjacent to a single-carriageway road with a 40 mph speed limit, the driver is legally required to leave the vehicle's parking lights switched on.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

The statement is true.
According to the UK Highway Code (Rule 249), all motor vehicles must display parking lights when parked on a road or in a lay-by on a road with a speed limit greater than 30 mph. Because the road in this scenario has a 40 mph limit, leaving parking lights on is a statutory requirement.

The car is parked at night in a designated lay-by on a road with a 40 mph speed limit.
