How many minutes are allowed to stop in the emergency lane?
1 Answers
Emergency lanes allow stopping for two minutes. Below is relevant information about emergency lanes: 1. Concept of emergency lanes: The emergency lane on a highway refers to the part of the road adjacent to the right-hand traffic lane, including the hard shoulder, with a width of more than 3 meters and an effective length of 30 meters or more, which can accommodate the parking needs of motor vehicles. 2. Usage of emergency lanes: Emergency lanes are designated for emergency vehicles. For example, if a vehicle cannot continue driving due to sudden illness or other physical conditions, experiences a flat tire, brake failure, or runs out of fuel, it may stop in the emergency lane. Alternatively, vehicles performing official duties may pass quickly and unobstructed in the emergency lane.
