On a change of gradient, is stopping and parking prohibited?
Vehicle immobilizations
Explanation
In a **crest of a hill**, visibility may be reduced, which means that it is not possible to clearly see what is beyond the top of the road. This can be dangerous, as it is not possible to anticipate if there are vehicles, pedestrians, or obstacles on the other side.
- **Stopping and parking** on crests of hills with reduced visibility is prohibited because it can cause accidents. Approaching vehicles cannot see the stopped or parked vehicle in time to react appropriately.
- However, on crests of hills where visibility is adequate, there is no specific prohibition against stopping or parking, as long as other traffic rules are followed and no danger or inconvenience is caused to other road users.
Therefore, the correct answer is that it is not prohibited to stop and park on a crest of a hill, **except on those where visibility is reduced**.
