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 zone of the prohibition sign.
The red car is waiting in the action zone of the sign, therefore it is waiting illegally. The blue car is waiting outside the action zone 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 zone of the sign with the meaning "No waiting" and of the marking with the meaning of the prohibition of waiting;
[...]
Regulation** - Article 66
[...]
(6) The meaning of the prohibition or restriction signs begins at the sign. In the absence of signalling that specifies the length of the sector to 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 prohibition or restriction signs are installed together with the sign announcing the entrance into a locality, their meaning is valid on that road until encountering the sign “Exit from locality”, except for places where other signs provide otherwise.
