Is temporary parking allowed in tunnels?
1 Answers
When driving a motor vehicle in a tunnel, temporary parking is permitted in the emergency parking zone. The emergency parking zone refers to a temporary stopping area on highways and first-class roads designated for vehicles experiencing sudden malfunctions or other emergencies. Vehicle owners can remain in the emergency parking zone to handle accidents or resolve vehicle issues before leaving. Below are precautions for driving in tunnels: When approaching a tunnel: Carefully observe traffic signs or information boards. Use the speedometer to confirm driving speed while maintaining appropriate following distance. Two-lane tunnels: Drive at normal speed on the right side of the road, avoid changing lanes inside the tunnel, and absolutely refrain from overtaking casually. Turn on headlights in advance: Due to poor visibility inside tunnels, activate headlights and width markers before entering to better see the road and traffic conditions, while making your vehicle more visible to others. Reduce speed: As brightness differs inside and outside tunnels, the human eye requires dark adaptation when entering and light adaptation when exiting - during which driver vision is impaired, necessitating speed reduction. Maintain proper steering control: Drivers must carefully control vehicle direction when driving through tunnels.
