Zorluk: OrtaWaiting and Parking

Drivers are permitted to stop on the white zig-zag markings on the approach to a zebra crossing to quickly pick up or set down a passenger.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False
The statement is false because the UK Highway Code strictly forbids stopping on white zig-zag markings near pedestrian crossings for boarding or alighting passengers. Stopping is only lawful when yielding to pedestrians using the crossing or when stationary in a queue of traffic.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the specific road marking and regulatory restriction described in the scenario.
The scenario concerns white zig-zag markings located on the approach to a zebra crossing.
White zig-zag markings designate a strict statutory no-stopping, no-waiting, and no-overtaking zone under UK road traffic regulations.
2
Evaluate whether exemptions exist for boarding or alighting passengers on white zig-zag lines.
No exemption exists for picking up or setting down passengers, loading, or parking on white zig-zags.
Highway Code Rules 191 and 240 prohibit stopping on zig-zag lines at all times, except when yielding to pedestrians or held in queued traffic, to maintain clear visibility between pedestrians and oncoming drivers.
3
Determine the truth value of the statement.
The statement claims that stopping to quickly pick up or set down passengers is permitted, which is false.
Because stopping for passenger boarding or alighting is strictly prohibited, the statement is false.
