For answer  A 

The marking consisting of a zigzag line applied on the edge of the carriageway prohibits waiting on the road section on which it is applied.

Attention! This prohibits the maneuver of waiting, it does not also prohibit the maneuver of stopping. The marking consisting of a zigzag line must not be confused with the marking for bus, trolleybus, taxi or tram stations that are not provided with a refuge for pedestrians, which have, in addition to the zigzag line, also the inscription “Bus”, “Taxi” or “Tram”.

We recommend that you also consult the articles from the updated road legislation, which can be found slightly below.

For answer  B 

This marking consisting of a zigzag line applied on the edge of the carriageway means the prohibition of waiting of vehicles on the road section on which it is applied, but it does not also prohibit the stopping of vehicles.

For answer  C 

If the marking consisting of a zigzag line is NOT completed by the inscription “Bus”, “Taxi” or “Tram”, it does not mean the existence of a station for the motor vehicles that carry out public passenger transport. The wording of the question does not mention these inscriptions, in which case the meaning of the marking is to prohibit waiting on the road section on which it is applied.

Although it is not the case for this question, when the zigzag marking is accompanied by the inscriptions “Bus”, “Taxi” or “Tram”, it indicates a station for public passenger transport vehicles, where stopping, waiting, U-turn and moving in reverse are prohibited, both on the marking and at a distance of up to 25 meters before and after it.

The correct answer is: A
