In Danish traffic rules, what is the minimum distance before a pedestrian crossing (fodgængerfelt) where stopping and parking are prohibited?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. 5 metres before the pedestrian crossing (and on the crossing itself)

  1. Step 1: Under Færdselsloven § 29 stk. 1 nr. 1, stopping or parking is prohibited on a pedestrian crossing and within 5 metres before the crossing (to preserve clear visibility of pedestrians for approaching drivers). Answer: 5 metres before the pedestrian crossing (and on the crossing itself). Why not the others: 10 metres applies to intersections, 2 metres is too short to maintain sightlines, and stopping on the zebra crossing itself is strictly banned.
