GENERAL Learning Environment Category B (B, B1)
Question 400 of 1208

Has the car in the image parked legally?

A yes, because it is parked entirely on the sidewalk;
B no, because it is outside the area where parking is allowed;
C yes, because it respects both the meaning of the sign and of the additional panel.
Explanation

The sign in the image is called “Parking” and allows the parking of vehicles, but the drawing on this sign specifies that they will be parked parallel to the road and with all wheels on the sidewalk, and the additional panel installed under the sign specifies the beginning of the area where parking is allowed.

The car respected the indications written on the sign, parking with all wheels on the sidewalk, but it did not respect the meaning of the additional panel and parked outside the area where parking is allowed, therefore it parked illegally.

Therefore the correct answer is: B
