Differences between stopping and parking

What is the judgment?

A stop is a momentary immobilization of the vehicle on the roadway. For the vehicle to be considered stopped, its driver must be in or near the vehicle. The reason for stopping may be: the ascent or descent of passengers, the loading or unloading of the vehicle, or any other reason, but always for a short time.



What is parking?


Parking is usually longer than stopping. The vehicle engine is off and the driver does not always stay close. A stationary or stationary vehicle must neither obstruct traffic nor represent a dangerous obstacle. It is forbidden to stop by car or to park on the sidewalk unless specifically marked on the ground.

What are the basic rules for parking a vehicle? First of all, unlike the stop, which has a momentary character, parking takes, in most cases, more time and requires cutting the engine of the vehicle. Also, the driver must ensure that his vehicle does not hinder the movement of other users, but also that it does not represent an obstacle. Generally, the marking on the ground as well as the prohibition s...
