Can I stop on the highway emergency lane if I have an urgent need to urinate?

[ODeclan]

You cannot stop on the highway emergency lane due to an urgent need to urinate. The emergency lane is specifically designated for vehicles handling emergency situations, such as engineering rescue, firefighting and rescue, medical emergencies, and police officers performing urgent official duties. It is a dedicated lane set up on both sides of highways, urban ring roads, and expressways. The highway emergency lane can be used under the following emergency circumstances: 1. A passenger in the vehicle suddenly falls ill; 2. The vehicle experiences a sudden malfunction and cannot operate normally; 3. The vehicle is an official emergency service vehicle. Emergency lanes are primarily marked on both sides of urban ring roads, expressways, and highways, exclusively for vehicles dealing with emergencies like engineering rescue, firefighting and rescue, medical emergencies, or police officers performing urgent official duties. Any private vehicle is prohibited from entering or stopping in the lane for any reason. A highway specifically refers to a road with four or more lanes, separated for two-way traffic, fully controlled access points, and entirely using grade-separated interchanges.
