You want to park on the right-hand side edge of the carriageway. How big is the mandatory minimum distance between your vehicle and the solid lane boundary line?

In German traffic rules, when parking at the right-hand edge of the carriageway, you must leave a minimum distance of 3 meters from the solid lane boundary line. This ensures enough space for moving vehicles to pass safely without obstruction. The 3-meter rule helps prevent accidents and traffic congestion by keeping the travel lane clear. Remember, this distance is measured between your vehicle and the solid line, not just the curb or edge of the road. Following this rule promotes safety for all road users.
