You want to park on the right-hand edge of the road. What should you do in this situation?

You answered correctly by choosing to forego the parking space even though you have priority. According to German traffic rules, when you want to park on the right-hand edge of a narrow street, it is important to prioritize safety and not obstruct traffic, especially if parking there would force other road users to stop or swerve unsafely. Having priority does not mean you must take the parking space if it would create a hazard or block the roadway. Instead, you should wait for a safer opportunity or choose another place to park where you do not interfere with the flow of traffic or create danger. This shows responsible driving and respect for other road users.
