Correct answer
No, use a designated permitted area.
No. Article 94 prohibits stopping on motorways except in designated areas. A wide shoulder or absence of a specific prohibition sign does not permit the stop. Use a designated permitted area. Forced immobilisation due to a breakdown requires the applicable safety measures; do not confuse that case with a recreational stop or apply identical rules to every shoulder on every road.
