How long must a vehicle remain stationary for the maneuver to be considered a stop?
Vehicle immobilizations
Explanation
To understand when a maneuver is considered a **stop**, it is important to differentiate it from the maneuver of **parking**.
- **Stop**: This refers to leaving the vehicle stationary for a time **less than two minutes**. During a stop, the driver must not leave the vehicle, or if they do, they must remain close to it. This ensures that the vehicle can resume movement quickly if necessary.
- **Parking**: This occurs when the vehicle remains stationary for **more than two minutes**. In this case, the driver can leave the vehicle and move away from it, as the vehicle is not expected to move soon.
Therefore, for a vehicle to be performing a stop maneuver, it must be stationary for a maximum of **2 minutes**. If the immobilization time exceeds this limit, the vehicle is considered to be parked.
