Can the emergency lane on the highway be used for temporary parking?
1 Answers
Highway emergency lanes cannot be used for temporary parking. Only in special circumstances, such as vehicle breakdowns, is temporary parking permitted. However, parking or driving on the highway emergency lane under non-emergency conditions violates road traffic safety laws and regulations. Precautions for temporary parking on the highway emergency lane are as follows: 1. Immediately turn on the hazard lights after parking in the emergency lane and set up a triangular warning sign 150 meters behind the vehicle. 2. All passengers should move to a safe area (outside the guardrail). 3. If the emergency lane is occupied at night, the width marker lights and rear lights should also be turned on to alert following vehicles.
