Question 8657 seems to claim that it is allowed to park or wait in the left lane of a 2-lane road in a built-up area. Surely not?
Waiting only, no parking
One of the weirder rules in Belgium ...
I'd suggest you DON'T wait on the left in this case (but on the right instead).
Normally, you have to wait or park on the right side of the road.
But on a roadway with one-way traffic (see the median in the picture), you are allowed to wait or park on the left
In this case, parking is out because the one-way roadway is divided in lanes
But waiting is still allowed ...

23.1. Elk stilstaand of geparkeerd voertuig moet worden opgesteld :
1° Rechts ten opzichte van zijn rijrichting
Indien het een rijbaan is met éénrichtingsverkeer, mag het evenwel langs de ene of langs de andere kant opgesteld worden.
