Heavy fault · 5 points

Your car is parked near a junction. A police officer in uniform tells you to move it because a tram cannot get past. What does the code require?

  1. You may refuse if the car is parked legally
  2. You must move it as soon as you are told
  3. You must move it only once a written order is produced
  4. You may wait until you have finished what you came for

The answer

B — You must move it as soon as you are told

Why

Art. 4.4 makes every driver of a stationary or parked vehicle move it as soon as an authorised person tells them to. Refusing is a third-degree offence under art. 3, 2° of the 2005 decree.

Why not

  • A Art. 4.4 does not depend on whether the parking was lawful. The order alone creates the duty.
  • C The article asks for an order from an authorised person, not for a document.
  • D The wording is 'as soon as', and refusing is a third-degree offence.
