The sign in the image is called “No waiting” and prohibits the voluntary waiting of vehicles. The additional panel installed under the sign specifies the end of the action area of the prohibition sign.

The red car is waiting in the action area of the sign, therefore it is waiting illegally. The blue car is waiting outside the action area of the sign, therefore it is waiting legally.

Therefore, of the two cars, only the blue car is waiting legally.

The correct answer is: B

Regulation**- Article 143

Is prohibited the voluntary waiting of vehicles:
[...]
b) in the action area of the sign with the meaning “No waiting” and of the marking with the meaning of prohibition of waiting;
[...]

Regulation** - Article 66

[...]
(6) The meaning of the signs of prohibition or restriction begins at the sign. In the absence of signalling that specifies the length of the section on which the regulation applies or of signs that announce the end of the prohibition or restriction, the meaning of these signs ends at the nearest intersection. When the signs of prohibition or restriction are installed together with the sign announcing the entry into a locality, their meaning is valid on that road until encountering the “Exit from locality” sign, except in places where other signs provide otherwise.
