What does this sign mean?
Signage: Vertical signs
The S-17a sign indicates a place where parking is allowed only for a specific use and for a limited time; therefore, its correct meaning is “parking for necessity.”
Explanation
Emergency parking (S-17a)
This sign indicates a **place where parking is allowed** only for a **specific use** and **for a limited time**.
- The **specific use** (for example, access to a **pharmacy**, **hospital**, etc.) is shown with a **pictogram** on the sign itself.
- The **maximum parking time** is indicated on an **additional panel** placed below the sign.
In summary, only vehicles using the parking area for that **specific purpose** and **only for the time indicated** may park there.
