May a driver voluntarily stop in a dual-carriageway motorway median that is not designated for stopping?

May a driver voluntarily stop in a dual-carriageway motorway median that is not designated for stopping?

Correct answer

No; it is prohibited.

Voluntary stopping and parking are prohibited on motorways and dual-carriageway motorways outside designated areas. Forced immobilisation in an emergency is different from voluntary stopping: safety measures and assistance are required. The median is not an ordinary stopping place.
