For answer A
The road legislation prohibits the voluntary stopping of vehicles on the level crossing with the current railway, as well as at a distance less than 50 meters before and after it. Stopping at a distance less than 100 meters is allowed, since the law does not provide such a limit. Therefore, answer A is wrong, because it indicates a distance greater than that legally established for the stopping prohibition.
The road legislation prohibits the stopping of vehicles on the lanes signalled as being reserved for pedestrians or for pedestrians and cyclists, because this maneuver would obstruct the space intended exclusively for these traffic participants, endangering their safety or hindering their movement.
The road legislation does not provide a prohibition regarding the voluntary stopping near or on the curb of the sidewalk, as long as the other rules are respected, such as the absence of road signalling that prohibits stopping.
It is important to specify that the term “curb of the carriageway” is improper, because the curb does not belong to the carriageway, but it delimits the sidewalk from the carriageway. Therefore, the wording in answer C is wrong both legally and terminologically, because it does not reflect a real prohibition provided by the law.
The correct answer is: B
Regulation** - Article 142
Is prohibited the voluntary stopping of the vehicles:
[...]
b) on the level crossings with the current railway and at a distance less than 50 m before and after them;
[...]
Regulation** - Article 142
Is prohibited the voluntary stopping of the vehicles:
[...]
k) on the mandatory lanes for pedestrians or for pedestrians and bicycles or on the lanes reserved for certain categories of vehicles, signalled as such;
[...]
The road legislation does not provide anything in this sense.
** Regulation = REGULATION for the implementation of OUG 195/2002 updated (Regulation of the road code)
