Are the occupants of a vehicle allowed to walk on the carriageway of a motorway?
Highways and motorways
Explanation
On **motorways** and **dual carriageways**, it is **prohibited** for **pedestrians** to walk on the roadway under any circumstances. This includes vehicle occupants, even in emergency or accident situations.
- **Pedestrians and vehicle occupants** cannot walk on the roadway of these roads. This is because motorways and dual carriageways are designed for the fast transit of motorized vehicles, and the presence of people on foot poses a significant danger both to them and to drivers.
- In case of an **emergency** or **breakdown**, people must remain in the vehicle or in a safe place off the roadway, such as the hard shoulder, and use the emergency posts to call for help. They should not walk on the road.
Therefore, the correct answer is that it is **not allowed** for vehicle occupants to walk on the roadway of a motorway under any circumstances.
