Is it permitted to stop or park in an area that is designated for loading and unloading?
Signage: Road markings
Explanation
In **loading and unloading zones**, it is allowed to **stop** but not to **park**. This means you can temporarily stop your vehicle to drop off or pick up passengers or goods, but you cannot leave it there unattended for an extended period.
- **Stopping** involves halting the vehicle for a short time, while **parking** means leaving the vehicle unattended.
- Loading and unloading operations must be carried out quickly and without causing inconvenience, and whenever possible, off the road.
- Parking in a loading and unloading zone outside the permitted hours is considered dangerous parking.
Therefore, in these areas, stopping is only allowed to facilitate loading and unloading operations, ensuring that traffic is not obstructed and no inconvenience is caused to other road users.
