Is stopping on the emergency lane for one minute considered a traffic violation?
1 Answers
Stopping on the emergency lane for one minute is considered illegal. Here are the specific details: 1. Introduction: The emergency lane on highways 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 vehicle parking. In emergencies, vehicles can drive or stop on the emergency lane. 2. Parking guidelines: If you encounter a problem such as a vehicle breakdown that cannot be resolved, you should park the vehicle in the emergency stopping area, turn on the hazard warning lights, place a warning sign 150 meters behind the vehicle, and during nighttime, rain, fog, or other adverse weather conditions, also turn on the side marker lights, tail lights, and rear fog lights. All passengers must move to a safe area and, if necessary, promptly call the highway emergency number to request assistance.
