In Italian traffic rules (Codice della Strada), what is the rule regarding the legal maximum continuous period a driver may leave a broken-down vehicle on a motorway emergency lane (corsia di emergenza)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. Maximum 3 hours

  1. Step 1: Under Art. 176, paragraph 4, stopping in emergency lanes or lay-bys due to breakdown or malaise is permitted only for the time strictly necessary and may not exceed 3 hours. Answer: Maximum 3 hours. Why not the others: the other options do not conform to Italian traffic regulations under the Codice della Strada.
