Sign stop parking prohibited. So, parking is prohibited in such cases.
Signs 3.27, 3.28, 3.29, 3.30, 5.27 5.28 5.29, 5.30
Many motorists daily, several times, perform a stop and parking maneuver. At the same time, even motorists with great experience do not always know how to properly park a car, and what can we say about beginners who have recently received their rights. And then there are a lot of road signs requiring you not to break the rules. But everything is not so scary, and in today's conversation we will talk about the signs associated with stopping and parking.
At the beginning, it is necessary to clearly understand: what is the difference between parking and stopping.
Here's what the rules of the road say:
“Stopping” means the intentional cessation of the movement of a vehicle for up to 5 minutes, as well as for more, if necessary for boarding or disembarking passengers or loading or unloading a vehicle.
"Parking" - the intentional stoppage of the movement of the vehicle for more than 5 minutes for reasons not related to the boarding or disembarkation of passengers or the loading or unloading of the vehicle.
3.28 "Parking prohibited." Parking of vehicles is prohibited.
3.29 "Parking is prohibited on odd days of the month."
3.30 "Parking is prohibited on even days of the month."
5.27 "Parking restriction zone".
5.28 "End of zone with parking restriction".
5.29 "Regulated parking zone". The place from which the territory (section of the road) begins, where parking is allowed and regulated using signs and markings.
5.30 "End of regulated parking zone".

8.2.2 indicates the zone of validity of prohibition signs 3.27 - 3.30.
Plate 8.2.2
8.2.3 indicates the end of the zone of validity of signs 3.27 - 3.30.
8.2.4 informs drivers about their presence in the coverage area of signs 3.27 - 3.30.
8.2.5 indicate the direction and coverage area of signs 3.27 - 3.30 when stopping or parking is prohibited along one side of the square, building facade, etc.
8.2.6 indicate the direction and coverage of signs 3.27 - 3.30 when stopping or parking is prohibited along one side of the square, building facade, etc.
As you can see, everything is painted quite clearly: up to 5 minutes your car just stopped, after 5 minutes it is already standing. This is clear, but many question the part of the rules that is related to cargo and passengers. To be honest, I myself got into such situations, and it is rather problematic to prove to the inspector that I have been dropping off passengers for half an hour. Let's not break. In a word: if you just got out of the car, sat down on the side of the road - after 5 minutes it will be considered a parking lot. If at the same time you took something out of the trunk, then even after 5 minutes it will be considered a stop associated with unloading. This is all on paper, in fact, if you are really unloading, then the traffic inspector will not come to you, and if you pretend, expect trouble.
Let's go further: what are the signs. Before continuing the conversation, I would like to clarify one detail: a forced stop. In this case, you are obliged to take all measures to mark your car (warning stop sign and emergency lights).
Everything is clear here, without exception: stopping is prohibited, and, accordingly, parking, in any case. The exception is a car breakdown. But do not get carried away and believe that the included emergency lights will save you from liability - the inspector, far from being a stupid person, and is faced with such violations every day - draw your own conclusions.
And it's simple here: you can stand up to 5 minutes, drop off passengers, or unload / load the car.
Schedule for even and odd days. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the signs specifically prohibit parking, but it is possible to stop for up to 5 minutes, disembark passengers, carry out an unloading / loading operation.
These signs will mark the beginning and end of the zone where parking is prohibited. It is a parking lot, if a stop, then everything is according to plan: time, passengers and cargo. Where are they installed? For example: there is a road where, according to all laws, you can stand. There is a communication system under the road, which constantly breaks down and requires repair. It is in such a place that these signs will be placed, which will ensure, if necessary, the free passage of the repair team.
These signs indicate the beginning and end of a regulated parking area. What does regulated mean? This means that in this place it will be prescribed how to position the car relative to the roadway and other cars. How? There will be a parking employee, either - one of the plates, or - the sign will indicate the schematic location of the car. To put it simply: these signs are a parking place. Here we smoothly approached the plates, which are used in conjunction with signs.
8.2.2, 8.2.3, 8.2.4, 8.2.5, 8.2.6
These plates are used in conjunction with signs 3.27 - 3.30. Even by their appearance, everything becomes clear: they limit the zone to which the signs apply. In details.
8.2.2 - the number of meters (ahead of the sign) on which the sign is valid.
8.2.3 - the end of the coverage area. After this sign, you can stop and stand, according to the rules of the road.
8.2.4 - to be set if it is necessary to indicate that you are still in the area of the sign. For example, after an intersection. Since signs 3.2.7 - 3.3.0 are subject to rules stating that their coverage area extends to the nearest intersection. Here, after the intersection, such a sign can be installed.
8.2.5 and 8.2.6 direction and distance of action. The description clearly indicates what these plates are used for. For example: you can not stop at the facade of one of the buildings. That's when they put up a sign that points with an arrow to a building where you can't stand.
I repeat once again: the signs work in conjunction with the signs 3.27 - 3.30. That is, depending on the sign, both parking and stopping with parking may be prohibited.
These plates are used with sign 5.29. Everything is clear here too. The only thing I want to draw attention to is that plate 8.6.1 is valid for all cars, and plates 8.6.2 - 8.6.9 - only for cars and motorcycles. This difference should be understood - the truck will not climb the curb, or stand across the road. Probably not entirely clear.
You have a car or motorcycle: in any case, you must put the car in accordance with any of these plates.
You have a truck: You can stand in the parking lot only if the plate 8.6.1 is present. In all other cases, parking is prohibited for you.
And a little about punishment. The main thing is that the punishment is not so terrible. The fact is that following the instructions of these signs and plates, you significantly reduce the risk of various accidents, since a properly parked car does not interfere with, and does not impede the movement of other cars. And the rules are as follows:
Article 12.19. Violation of the rules for stopping or parking vehicles
1. Violation of the rules for stopping or parking vehicles, except for the cases provided for by Part 1 of Article 12.10 of this Code and Parts 2-6 of this Article, -
shall entail a warning or the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of three hundred roubles.
2. Violation of the rules for stopping or parking vehicles in places designated for stopping or parking vehicles of disabled persons, -
shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine on the driver in the amount of three thousand to five thousand roubles.
3. Stopping or parking vehicles at a pedestrian crossing and less than 5 meters in front of it, with the exception of a forced stop and the case provided for in paragraph 6 of this article, or violation of the rules for stopping or parking vehicles on the sidewalk, except for the case provided for in paragraph 6 of this article , -
3.1. Stopping or parking of vehicles at stopping places of route vehicles or closer than 15 meters from places of stopping of route vehicles, with the exception of a stop for boarding or disembarking passengers, an emergency stop and the cases provided for by paragraphs 4 and 6 of this Article, -
shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of one thousand roubles.
3.2. Stopping or parking of vehicles on tram tracks, or stopping or parking of vehicles further than the first row from the edge of the carriageway, with the exception of a forced stop and the cases provided for in parts 4 and 6 of this article -
shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of one thousand five hundred roubles.
4. Violation of the rules for stopping or parking vehicles on the carriageway, which caused the creation of obstacles for the movement of other vehicles, as well as stopping or parking a vehicle in a tunnel, except for the case provided for by Part 6 of this Article, -
shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of two thousand roubles.
5. Violation provided for by part 1 of this article, committed in the federal city of Moscow or St. Petersburg, -
shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of two thousand five hundred roubles.
6. Violations provided for by paragraphs 3-4 of this article, committed in the federal city of Moscow or St. Petersburg, -
shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of three thousand roubles.
Now you know all about where to stop and stand, and how to stop and stand.
What is the effect of a No Stopping sign? What in general, according to the traffic rules, does "stop" mean? Is there any penalty for breaking this "rule"? And in general, what is the area of action of our today's sign? You will have to read about all this further. Otherwise, you can run into trouble in the form of not the best punishments. For example, for a fine or deprivation of a driver's license.
Terms
A bit of terminology. You can't do without it. Why? The whole problem lies in the fact that such concepts as "stop" and "parking" in the rules of the road have different interpretations. And, of course, they are portrayed in different ways.
Parking is the intentional cessation of traffic for more than 5 minutes. In this case, you make a decision without permission and it has nothing to do with the passengers (or rather, their boarding, for example) or with the loading and unloading of something.
But the stop is characterized by a temporary cessation of movement, which is necessary for the "unloading" of the vehicle or the "acceptance" of passengers. There is nothing particularly difficult to understand here. Practice shows that the stop usually lasts up to 5 minutes. With rare exceptions, when more time is needed for boarding and disembarking passengers.
"No parking"
But what does a No Stopping or Parking sign look like? The coverage area is the same here, but the specifics will be a little later. It is worth considering right away that there is no single interpretation of these restrictions. Stop prohibition has its own type of expression, parking has its own type. True, there are similarities between them.
"No Parking" is a big circle with a red edging. It is crossed out with one diagonal line. From left to right. And there is nothing else special about it. Please note that the effect of the sign "Stopping prohibited", as well as "Parking prohibited" has the same distribution. Now it’s clear what the parking ban looks like. By the way, there are exceptions to this restriction - these are people with disabilities. And cars with taximeters, mail. Shuttle vehicles must obey the sign. 
"Stop prohibited"
Move on. Now, before you know the effect of the sign "Stopping and parking is prohibited", you should understand how the corresponding prohibition to stop the vehicle looks like. Practice shows that it is quite easy to distinguish between the two options we have proposed today.
The thing is that "Stop is prohibited" is again a circle. But in this case, it is crossed out "crosswise". In other words, two diagonal lines in different directions. And, as in the previous case, it has a red "edging". Nothing difficult, right? It is easy to distinguish between a stop ban and a parking ban. But how long do they last? After all, there are some restrictions, right?
Standard Rules
The sign "Stop is prohibited" (the area of the sign will now become known to us) in cities and beyond is very common. And therefore, drivers need to know in which particular places before and after the corresponding signs it is possible to park.
If there are no clarifications, then the bans on stopping and parking apply only to the side of the road where they are installed. That is, if you saw them on "your" side, you can park on the other. Unless, of course, a similar sign has been installed. 
In addition, the No Stopping sign applies to certain areas. Which one exactly? In cities and on roads, it will "work" to the nearest intersection. In other words, if after it there are no prohibitions, you can safely park and stop for a while. Here it is worth paying attention to several nuances, but about them later.
no crossroads
What to do if it turns out that the road is "solid" and there are no intersections on the driver's path at all? By the way, turns are not taken into account. Only crossroads, that's important. What is the effect of the No Stopping sign in this scenario?
Everything here is also quite simple to understand. The whole problem lies in the fact that if there are no intersections along the way of the "work" of the sign, then it will operate until the end of the settlement. With rare exceptions. But more on that later. Thus, be aware - or you will not be able to park and stop to the nearest intersection, or to the end of the village. This is not always convenient, but it happens in some cases. 
Arrow
However, as has been repeatedly said, there are limitations and exceptions. There are not so many of them. And, to be honest, these are not even exceptions, but part of the rules of the road. Often under the main signs you can see small clarifying plates. They help drivers to determine the area of action of certain signs. And our current situation just implies the presence of these.
For example, a No Stopping sign with a down arrow indicates that you have reached the "stopping point". In other words, after this pointer, you can stop. It turns out that if you saw a sign, and under it a down arrow - you have reached the end of this or that rule. Not very complicated information, right? It won't be hard to remember.
Double arrows
What else can await us? For example, it is not uncommon for drivers to be shocked (beginners) by such a phenomenon as a double arrow under a prohibition sign. What it is? How should one act in this situation?
The action of the road sign "Stop is prohibited" in this case applies to the section before and after it. Very often at the bottom it will also be indicated "in footage", for what specific duration. Pay attention to this.
In general, such a double arrow indicates that you are within the scope of one or another restriction. This also applies to parking/stopping. Thus, you should not "pause" near such signs. You run the risk of "running into" the punishment. 
Among other things, under the main sign you can see the time. You don't need to be scared either. Why? These are the time periods when the sign works. At other times, you can stop and park both before and after them. Unless, of course, there are no other "limiters". Everything is easy and simple.
Punishments
The action of the sign "Stop is prohibited" is now clear to us. But what happens if you suddenly violate the rules of parking and stopping? Is there any way to avoid punishment?
In fact, it is not so easy to do this. After all, if you are "caught by the hand", then the punishment is inevitable. What can a citizen who made a stop in the wrong place expect?
The simplest is a warning. It is imposed rarely and only when you break the rules not so often, or if this is your first offense at all. Then you can "get off" with a small fine of 500 rubles. Also not very dangerous, but less pleasant. The standard fine for violation of parking and stopping rules is from 1,000 to 5,000 rubles. With rare exceptions. 
Practice shows that more and more often, vehicles and rights are being taken away from citizens for such violations. In some cases, this is perfectly legal. But sometimes - no. Pay attention to this. So that no one has any questions, carry the Code of Administrative Offenses with you. In it, you will definitely be able to find specifically your situation and figure out who is right and who is not. In any case, just try to always follow the rules of the road. Only this is fully capable of protecting you from many problems.
Constant, uninterrupted movement of the vehicle is impossible: both the driver and the equipment must rest. Or, in other words, go into stop or parking mode.
We note only one important circumstance: the presence of both signs and markings is an incomparable benefit for the driver. And all because they are a very clear way to regulate stopping and parking, and the car owner can see with his own eyes the correctness (or, unfortunately, incorrectness) of his actions.
However, the presence or absence of the previously mentioned signs and markings does not yet exhaust the principles of stopping and parking, for which a special section has been allocated in the SDA.
SDA section 12: general principles of stopping and parking
The 12th section of the SDA is specifically devoted to the rules for stopping and parking (in the event that they are not prohibited by the signs and markings already considered).
So, the driver needs to sacredly remember " Golden Rule»: both stopping and parking are allowed on the right side of the road - on the side of the road.
Under any circumstances, the car owner, when planning parking, can make it here (unless, of course, this is prohibited by other traffic rules).
However, in large and medium-sized settlements, as a rule, there is no roadside. In such cases, the Rules allow stopping and parking on the right side of the road - on the edge of the carriageway.
The driver must clearly understand that if there is a shoulder and it is possible to stop and park on it, he is prohibited from using the carriageway for these purposes.
Such tactics will be a gross violation of traffic rules, and most often drivers commit it when driving outside the settlement. Thus, they not only form obstacles for the movement of other vehicles, but also contribute to the creation of an emergency in high-speed traffic.
The rules provide for stopping and parking not only on the right side of the road. In two cases, it is allowed to park on its left side. But both of these options are directly related to the road sections of the settlement.
1. A two-lane road (one lane for each direction) with no tram tracks in the middle.
Stopping and parking on the left side of such roads, at first glance, looks unsafe. After all, the exit from such a parking lot will be carried out from the lane of oncoming traffic. However, in the locality - in the conditions of the current speed limit - this danger does not seem so serious. But the need to find a parking space - on the contrary - looks like a rather urgent problem.
It becomes quite clear the requirement that there are no tram tracks in the middle of the road.
Just in this case, the exit of the vehicle from the parking lot on the left side of a very wide road will no longer be safe.
2. One-way road.
The right to stop on the left side of a one-way road should not cause skepticism or rejection, because traffic across the entire width of the carriageway is carried out in one direction.
True, drivers of trucks, whose permitted maximum weight exceeds 3.5 tons, must remember that under these conditions they are only allowed to stop and only for loading and unloading the vehicle.
As for the situation outside the settlement, here any driver should refrain from stopping on the left side of the road, as well as from long-term parking (for a long rest, overnight stay, etc.) within the road. He should find a special area provided for parking or go off the road.
This requirement is intended to ensure maximum safety for both stationary vehicles and those moving on the road. In unforeseen cases, the shoulder can become a site, thanks to which you can avoid a collision by changing lanes to it. Therefore, it is desirable for the roadside outside the settlement to be free.
But on the "Motorway" (5.1), for example, as on or M4, and "Road for cars" (5.3), stopping and parking, in general, are allowed only on special sites, which, in addition, must be marked with appropriate signs indicating the possibility parking.
Within such a road - both on the carriageway and on the side of the road - stopping and parking are strictly prohibited. This restriction is connected both with the intensity of traffic on such sections of the road, and with them.
Location of the vehicle when parking
When positioning the vehicle in stop and park conditions, one more “golden rule” must be remembered: the vehicle can only be parked in one row and only parallel to the roadway. The only exception to this rule are two-wheeled vehicles that can be placed in two rows.
Another way of parking is allowed only if it is indicated accordingly by the signs “Parking method”, as well as horizontal road marking lines indicating parking “boxes”.
In this case, it is allowed to make stops and parking at an angle to the carriageway and even using the sidewalk space. But in this case, there should be a corresponding indication of the plate for this method of setting.
In these conditions, the driver must remember one more requirement: to put at an angle to the roadway or on the sidewalk. The rules allow only cars, motorcycles, mopeds and bicycles. It is prohibited to park other vehicles at an angle to the carriageway or use the sidewalk space.
For all other vehicles, such parking methods are not available. They may stop and park only parallel to the carriageway and only when such a method is permitted.
Thus, the location of the vehicle when parking relative to the roadway must be parallel, unless signs and / or markings indicate a different way of parking the vehicle.
Where it is prohibited to stop and park vehicles
Special cases of prohibition of stopping
Paragraph 12.4 of the SDA is devoted to cases when drivers are strictly prohibited from stopping (and, consequently, parking). All these cases, provided for by the Rules, are united by one common property: it is not safe to stop and park in such sections.
1. Stopping is prohibited on the tram tracks and in the immediate vicinity of the tram tracks, if the stopped vehicle will interfere with the movement of the tram.
The ban on stopping in such places is connected with the impossibility of continuing the movement of rail vehicles, because the tram will not be able to bypass the obstacle that has arisen on its rails.
2. Stopping is prohibited at railway crossings.
It is unlikely that a sane person would object to a ban on stopping on railway tracks, which are a particularly dangerous section of the road. The driver must remember that the borders of the railway crossing are limited by barriers or signs "Single-track railway" (1.3.1) or "Multi-track railway" (1.3.2) installed at the entrance to the crossing and the exit from it. This is where stopping is prohibited.
3. Stopping is prohibited in the tunnels.
As a rule, tunnel portals are not so wide, and stopping here will interfere with the unhindered and safe movement of other vehicles. And the drivers themselves tend to drive through the limited spaces of the tunnels as quickly as possible.
4. Stopping is prohibited on bridges, flyovers, overpasses and under them (there is an exception).
The prohibition of stopping on artificial span structures is determined by a number of circumstances:
- limited space;
- the danger of placing a large number of vehicles here, creating pressure on the supporting structures of the structure, etc.
The prohibition of stopping under such artificially created objects is due to the same limited space.
However, the driver must remember an important exception to this rule.
If ON the bridge, ON the flyover, ON the overpass (but not under them) in this direction there are at least three traffic lanes, then stopping and parking ON such structures are allowed.
5. Stopping is prohibited in sections where the distance between the stopped vehicle and the solid marking line (except for 1.2.1), the opposite edge of the carriageway or the dividing strip is less than 3 meters.
Let's take a look at the intricacies of this situation.
The absence of a 3-meter interval between stopped vehicles and a solid marking line makes it very difficult for others to bypass them without violating traffic rules. They will be forced to break the Rules.
The same circumstance also applies in the case of a dividing strip and the opposite edge of the carriageway, when drivers of other vehicles both physically (because of the curb) and legally will not be able to bypass the stopped transport.
6. Stopping is prohibited at pedestrian crossings, as well as closer than 5 meters in front of them.
The prohibition of stopping and parking at a pedestrian crossing is understandable: otherwise, the movement of pedestrians, who have an advantage in this area, will be interfered with.
The necessary distance of 5 meters before the pedestrian crossing should provide the driver with visibility of the approaching vehicle. In this case, the pedestrian entering the pedestrian crossing will not be an unpleasant surprise for drivers.
7. Stopping is prohibited on the roadway in conditions of limited visibility (less than 100 meters in any direction).
This restriction of stopping and parking is introduced so that in difficult road conditions there are no obstacles on the roadway in the face of stopped vehicles. This circumstance significantly complicates the oncoming traffic. But this rule only applies to .
Stopping and parking on the roadside are not prohibited.
8. Stopping is prohibited at the intersections of carriageways and 5 meters before and after them (there is an exception).
The prohibition of stopping and parking at the intersections of carriageways is quite natural. After all, how will other road users move in this case?
A very important circumstance. Some drivers say that stopping and parking are prohibited. This is wrong: it is at the intersections of carriageways and 5 meters before and after them. And this is fundamental!
Let's look at the next example.
Before us is a roundabout. It is formed by three intersections of carriageways. And stopping (with parking) at such an intersection is allowed, but subject to a 5-meter distance to each intersection.
It is important to note that there is one exception to this rule: at a T-junction with a solid marking line (or dividing strip) opposite the side lane, stopping and parking are allowed. Naturally, subject to a 3-meter interval to a solid line (or dividing line).
This exception is understandable. With a solid line (or dividing strip) at such an intersection, left turns and U-turns are prohibited. Therefore, a vehicle standing in front of a side passage will not interfere with the rectilinear movement of other vehicles.
And, conversely, a broken line marking at the intersection will create a crowd and lead to congestion.
9. Stopping is prohibited at public transport stops (route vehicles) and taxi ranks, as well as 15 meters before and after them (there is an exception).
Such restriction of stopping and parking is explained by the need for unhindered movement of route vehicles and passenger taxis.
As for the 15-meter distance before and after such places, this requirement is connected with the prospect of unimpeded exit of such vehicles from the indicated sections of the road.
If there is a “yellow broken line” marking (1.18), the driver must measure the prescribed 15 meters on each side from the marking line. And in the absence of markings - from signs 5.16 - 5.18.
An exception to the rule under consideration is as follows: drivers are allowed to stop at public transport stops and taxi ranks only if two conditions are met (simultaneously):
- for embarkation and disembarkation of a passenger;
- provided that there is no interference with route vehicles and passenger taxis.
Therefore, it is not at all necessary when boarding and disembarking passengers at a bus stop. The main thing is not to interfere with the "minibuses" by disembarking or seating passengers.
10. Stopping is prohibited in those places where the stopped vehicle makes it impossible for another vehicle to enter or exit, interferes with pedestrians, and also closes the means of traffic control (signs or traffic lights).
Such a ban is obvious.
For example, a truck driver blocked the visibility of a No Stopping sign for other drivers.
And it takes a very long time to deal with this situation. There are many offenders here. Here's how they can get away.
11. Stopping is prohibited in the cyclist lane.
Here everything is clear and without comments. This is a lane for cyclists only, and drivers of motor vehicles have nothing to do on it: neither for movement, nor for stopping or parking.
Special cases of prohibition of parking
According to the traffic rules, parking is prohibited in those places where stopping is prohibited. This circumstance is quite logical, because, as noted earlier, it is impossible to park without first stopping (at least for 5 minutes).
So, parking (as well as stopping) is prohibited:
1) on the tram tracks and in the immediate vicinity of the tram tracks, if at the same time the stopped vehicle will interfere with the movement of the tram;
2) at railway crossings;
3) in tunnels;
4) on bridges, overpasses, overpasses and under them (except for cases when ON the bridge, ON the overpass, ON the overpass (but not under them) in this direction there are at least three traffic lanes);
5) in sections where the distance between the stopped vehicle and the solid marking line (except for 1.2.1), the opposite edge of the carriageway or the dividing strip is less than 3 meters;
6) at pedestrian crossings, as well as closer than 5 meters in front of them;
7) on the roadway in conditions of limited visibility (less than 100 meters in any direction);
8) at the intersections of carriageways and 5 meters before and after them (except for the case of parking at a T-shaped intersection with a solid marking line (or a dividing strip) opposite a side passage);
9) in places of stops of public transport (route vehicles) and parking lots of passenger taxis, as well as 15 meters before and after them;
10) in those places where the stopped vehicle makes it impossible for other vehicles to enter or exit, interferes with pedestrians, and also closes the means of traffic control (signs or traffic lights);
11) on the lane for cyclists.
In addition to these cases, parking is prohibited in two more areas.
1. Parking is prohibited outside the settlement on the carriageway of roads marked with the sign "Main road" (2.1).
The ban on parking on this section of the road is due to the high speed of movement outside the settlement. Especially if the traffic is on the main road. In such conditions, a vehicle standing on the roadway will be a clear hindrance. And if a short stop here is allowed, then parking using the roadway is excluded by the Rules for reasons of elementary safety.
Consequently, outside the settlement on the carriageway of the road marked with the sign "Main Road", parking is allowed only on the side of the road or outside the road.
2. Parking is prohibited within the 50m zone before and after railroad crossings.
Parking, like stopping, is prohibited at a railway crossing. This is not discussed. But parking cannot be carried out also at a distance of 50 meters before and after the move.
Such a ban is explained by the danger of this section of the road, located in close proximity to the railway tracks.
Actions of the driver and passengers when stopping and parking
When stopping or parking, the driver and passengers are prohibited from opening the doors of the vehicle if these actions interfere with other road users.
Agree, a textbook example and a very common mistake of both drivers and passengers.
In the event that the driver is going to leave the vehicle and leave it unattended, he is obliged to do everything possible to exclude the possibility of involuntary movement of the vehicle, as well as its unauthorized use.
This means that it is necessary to restrict the access of unauthorized persons to the vehicle (close the door and trunk locks, activate the anti-theft system provided for by the design, put the car on an alarm system, etc.).
Thus, the knowledge by the driver of the rules for stopping and parking vehicles will allow, on the one hand, to avoid punishment in accordance with applicable law (in the form of an administrative fine and), and on the other hand, to keep his vehicle intact (or at least hinder unauthorized penetration into it and illegal possession of it).

In Europe, for microcars (for example, Smart), in order to instill interest in them, a number of concessions were made in the orientation of the car when parking: 2 cars in one place, permission to put across, etc. It seems to me that it would be nice to introduce this into our traffic rules - you see, the people will transfer from their huge cars, freeing up a lot of space!
Dmitry Borisovich
I agree with Vitaliy, When the Tundra stands near the parking sign on the side of the road, then the soul is not calm.
In general, you need to know the parking rules, our traffic police officers like to issue fines allegedly for improper parking. Not everyone has traffic rules with them and is able to object to the inspectors.
Alexei
We have a problem with handicapped parking. Occupied by quite healthy people. I paid for parking myself 2 weeks ago. I got into the paid parking area. But the car was taken away by a tow truck, and I got a fine for parking in places for the disabled. There were no handicapped markings on the pavement, only a handicapped parking sign hidden in the foliage of a tree. That's how I got caught for my carelessness. It turns out that the society of the disabled seemed to have few parking spaces in the city, at the request they were increased by 10%, but the markings did not have time to update.
Oksana
I often read information about road signs and markings on the Internet. Innovations may take effect and you may not know about them! Every driver should always be aware of the rules, and repetition, as they say, is the mother of learning!
Alexandra
I myself drive a Toyota IQ, it would be great if similar concessions for mini-cars were legalized in our country. In general, everything is sad with parking, I constantly see cars standing right under the signs and nothing .. only in the center of the city traffic cops still somehow walk and the tow truck works

The most painful topic for both motorists and pedestrians. Now with the introduction of paid parking, there are not so many options where to leave the car. Previously, I often traveled to Europe, and there for a long time you can leave your Smart Mini next to the same Mini in one place. If only Russia had adopted such a law, you see, some would have moved to Smart Mini.

It is a pity that not everyone knows the rules for proper parking, but they park cars where they want, and then complain that they took them to the impound. In resort towns, tow trucks are actively working, and we constantly have traffic jams because of those who are too lazy to walk an extra 50 meters from the parking lot.
And more often it is necessary to update knowledge about traffic rules, otherwise you won’t get rid of extra fines.
Edward
Once I was in a traffic jam and I see how some motorists go around the row on the side of the road. Outrageous. What could threaten them for this? Of course, they are unlikely to deprive them of their rights, I think they will issue a fine, if so, in what amount?
Galina
I read the article and decided that the traffic rules need to be flipped over again. Over time, the information is forgotten, now I am guided only in everyday traffic situations.
Pavel
I was in St. Petersburg, there was practically nowhere to stop at museums, I had to leave the car far along the road, so I noticed that traffic cops with a tape measure measured the distance from cars to crossroads and pedestrian crossings. Half a meter and drove to the tow truck!
Nicholas
Once he proved his case to the inspector. I stopped on the bridge, the view was beautiful on the city, I decided to take a picture. The traffic police car drove up and the inspector sat on me that stopping at this place is prohibited. There were three lanes in one direction, moreover, I often saw that cars stopped here. There was a sign in the distance, which, according to the inspector, forbids stopping here. I had to walk around to make sure that the visible sign does not apply to this site. As a result, we left without a fine, but the inspector promised to catch me in another place. Ten years have passed since then, I have not seen him again.
Maria
Parking signs are especially annoying for time and for even and odd numbers. I mixed up the date, I was looking for a car. I thought they stole it, but it was taken away by a tow truck
Ivanovich
In the good old days, when there were much fewer cars on the roads, even then violations of the rules of stopping and parking were not uncommon. The most common violations were: stopping outside the city on the left side of the road, unloading passengers onto the carriageway. Many drivers did not understand the difference between the action of the signs “no stopping” and “no parking”. Drivers often stopped in prohibited places, making it difficult for other cars to move. At present, the situation has sharply escalated, especially in large cities, and even in regional centers. There are so many cars involved in the movement that the arrangement of organized parking lots and violation of parking rules is a constant problem. A caste of impudent drivers has formed, whose favorite habit is to stop the vehicle on the roadway, hiding behind the included emergency gang.
Vladimir
There are more and more cars on the road every day, but the number of competent drivers, unfortunately, is progressively decreasing. I am no longer surprised by a parked car across the parking lot markings.
Tatyana
When I got my license, I couldn't remember which parking sign and which stop. Yes, I also confused where on even and odd days, it is forbidden to park on weekends. Periodically, I also re-read about the signs, so as not to miss the new.
Sergey
In the near future, all regulation should be transferred to CCTV cameras, naturally the number of traffic police officers will be reduced. If, for example, I have a forced stop in the wrong place - a breakdown, poor health, etc. In the usual case, you can stand as long as you like until you fix the problem or until the traffic police notice you, but in this case you can prove your innocence on the spot. And what about surveillance cameras after the fine comes, because in most cases the evidence base may be absent for many reasons.
Ivan
Last month, three tickets for illegal parking. And as I see, in one place, the police were wrong.
Lyokha
Despite a solid driving experience, parking in the city still causes certain difficulties. There is a lot of transport, all more or less suitable places are clogged, the markings are often either very sophisticated or worn out from old age, inspectors love to catch violators and it is not always possible to prove their case, given the rather complex regulation in traffic rules, a lot of nuances, which, frankly, are few , who knows. Sometimes it’s easier to walk a kilometer on foot than to suffer, trying to fit into the vacated “pockets”. It’s easier outside the settlements, but when parking on “nimble” highways, of course, it is very desirable to drive away from the curb, otherwise many unpleasant stories happen, starting with fines and ending with an accident.
Galina
Parking is a serious problem on our roads and yards. If on the road the parking rules are still somehow observed, then in the yards this is a problem. They park where they want, on playgrounds, in flowerbeds.
Oleg
I read all the reviews and am surprised, most complain that the stop sign annoys them. I often see this situation: a driver drives up to a place where stopping is prohibited, turns on emergency lights and goes about his business. I specially timed the time, sometimes it reached half an hour. Well, what kind of culture can we talk about then. And it’s right that they are taken away on tow trucks, and then we complain that we need to look for a car. Let's comply with the requirements and then everyone will be happy.
Peter
Recently, paid parking near shopping centers, public events, etc. not fully regulated and often just half empty. Drivers have to make detours in other free places and create inconvenience for themselves and others. For example, I don't want to pay freeloaders. And thus, the city administration, together with the traffic police for profit, through which IP creates emergency situations and contributes to traffic violations, making a profit even at the expense of fines and evacuation.
Leonid
I stopped to take pictures at the dam across the yellow solid line, the traffic police immediately drove up and began to issue a fine! But who determined that I was standing for more than 5 minutes and how to prove my case, is there such a possibility?
Oleg
In order not to sort things out with the traffic police, when I’m driving along the M2 highway, I most often use not the roadside, but the exits to the forest or the field, these rules already do not apply there and the traffic police have practically nothing to complain about. Yes, and most calmly, trucks do not fly past.
Ivanovich
That's literally yesterday. I'm driving down the street, the usual three-meter width of the road. A car is driving ahead. I keep my distance. Suddenly he starts to slow down and stops without moving to the side of the road. I decide which side to go around, when suddenly a stopped car starts to reverse right at me. He managed to dodge. That's what it means to violate the rules of stopping. At first I wanted to beat the driver, who made excuses that he did not see me. Ram.
Sergey Sergeevich
Here are smart people - they came up with a sign for stopping / parking "place of rest", they just forgot to indicate the radius of action. Whatever they come up with - where to work, if only not to work. On all country roads, I have the right to stop anywhere I want outside the roadway, on any roadside where there are no prohibition signs. According to this, why such a sign is needed.
Artyom
I understand what a stop and parking are, and the signs indicating parking lots, parking lots and organized recreation areas do not frighten me. But prohibition signs cause a lot of trouble, I don’t particularly like yellow markings, it would be better if the sign hung.
Anton
As always, winter came unexpectedly. In our city, and in others, probably, the implementation of the rules for stopping and parking becomes more complicated due to their coverage with snow. Even at night, public utilities cannot clean organized parking lots, as they are occupied by cars. For this reason, the snow rolls and gets higher and higher. At the first thaw, trampled snow turns into porridge. It is difficult to enter the parking lot and not so easy to leave, the car is skidding. I can’t understand how to solve this problem, because the culprits of this situation are not even the city authorities, but we, the drivers.
Victor
Yes, in winter it is sometimes impossible to comply with the rules for parking a car because of snowdrifts. and it's a disaster on the highway. Only "emergency" rescues.
Numerous cars parked on lawns, at the gates of government offices, on the sidewalk - all this has become so familiar and mundane that it is practically not taken seriously. The government decided to attend to the solution of this eternal problem of megacities and adopted a set of amendments that changed the requirements of signs regarding parking.
Dear readers! The article talks about typical ways to solve legal issues, but each case is individual. If you want to know how solve exactly your problem- contact a consultant:
APPLICATIONS AND CALLS ARE ACCEPTED 24/7 and 7 days a week.

Now the punishment for non-compliance with their requirements can be applied in the form of a fine, administrative arrest, compulsory work, and in some cases, the initiation of a criminal case. Therefore, every driver should know (Stopping and parking the vehicle) and be able to use them.
Varieties
Not every car owner can correctly and competently explain how these signs differ. Outwardly, they are very similar, the difference lies only in the additional diagonal stripe on one of them. At the same time, the meaning and requirement differ significantly.
To understand this issue, you need to analyze:
- "Stop is a deliberate cessation of movement lasting more than 5 minutes, except for the situation when it is necessary to load - unload cargo or land - disembark passengers."
- "Parking is a deliberate cessation of movement lasting more than 5 minutes for reasons not related to the need to load - unload cargo or put on - drop off passengers."
Their official markings are: "3.28 no parking", "no stopping 3.27". The difference between the signs is palpable, they can be distinguished by the following feature. Both badges are round and have a red edging around the blue ball.
This is where their similarity ends, the prohibition of stopping has 1 diagonal strip, the analogue that does not allow standing and parking is 2. At the same time, in the area of sign 3.28 it is allowed to stop, but only for a short period of time, as mentioned above.
Video: Road sign 3.27 "Stopping is prohibited."
Area of effect
Some drivers don't even know what the down arrow next to the sign means even though they drive every day.
These conditions are governed by the norms of clause 1.2 of the "General Provisions" of the SDA, and.
These legal documents formulate the conditions for limiting the territory to which the signs apply:
- Locality designation. The character setting on the image is wrong. The coverage area affects only the area to the end of the settlement, that is, 10 - 20 m.
- A plate fixed with a sign and showing the extent or direction of action.
- The sign of the cancellation of restrictions imposed earlier.
Below is a detailed description of the application formalities:
- Under the sign "Stop is prohibited" there is another 8.2.3, in this situation it means that its action is directed forward.
- Sign 3.27, 8.2.2 and distance indicator (left). This means that the territory of action lasts 10 m. Quite often it is duplicated with another sign (on the right), showing that after passing it, stopping is allowed.
- Addition 8.24 with a drawn pointer up and down means the following: the territory of action is directed in both directions. Such combinations are set when the ban stretches for a long distance, thereby reminding the driver of the restriction.
- The yellow marking line 1.4, which is an analogue of a solid line, in combination with the sign 3.27 means a prohibition on stopping throughout the marking.
- Cancel the effect of the sign or replace 3.27 with an arrow down can be a sign warning the driver about the end of all restrictions introduced earlier.
- As mentioned earlier, the action is canceled by the beginning or end of the settlement, indicated by the signs shown in the photo.
- Sometimes there is a situation when the installed sign is 3.27 with a sign indicating the length of its action, for example, 500 m, and only 200 to the settlement or intersection. What to do in such a situation? Such situations are not commented on in the rules, but you can use GOST R 52289-2004 "Road Signs". Clause 5.9.5 says the following: "The coverage area should not exceed the distance regulated by clause 5.4.31 of the SDA." At the same time, this norm characterizes that the coverage area is valid up to a settlement or an intersection. Therefore, the non-compliance of road workers with GOST standards is obvious.
The most common method of canceling sign 3.27 is at an intersection. In this situation, it is advisable to refer to clause 1.2 of the SDA, which formulates these terms: "The crossroads are intersecting, branching roads located on the same level."
Departure from adjacent territories, adjacent forest, field and other secondary roads do not apply to them.
Rules on the road
The conditions relating to this situation, disclosed in the rules, need to be studied and analyzed in detail. The whole difficulty is that there are many nuances in this paragraph, non-compliance with which will lead to a fine and even deprivation of a driver's license.
You can understand them from the examples below:
- The action of the sign lasts until the end of the yellow marking line, applied next to the sidewalk. Stopping and parking is allowed everywhere outside of it.
- Parking is allowed because sign 3.28 is valid for the rest of the community, and he plans to stop outside of it.
- The requirements regarding the character duration area have been described previously. Based on this, the gap in the markings and the U-turn are not an intersection. That's why .
- On a one-way road, parking is allowed on both sides. However, in this situation, car "B" violates traffic rules, as it stopped under the sign.
- The driver is obliged to fulfill the requirement of the traffic controller, who is an employee of the traffic police, even when they contradict the rules of the DD. Here you need to stop at the place indicated by the police.
- Having stopped at this place, the driver will not violate traffic rules only if the distance from the edge of the car to the sign is more than 50 m. Otherwise, he may receive a fine.
- Under a sign with such a sign, parking is allowed only for disabled people or citizens transporting them. In this case, the car must be marked with a similar sticker, and the driver or passenger had documents confirming that they belong to a preferential category.
- Parking on the side of the road in the village is allowed. Vehicles are located outside the sign and plate, however, vehicle "B" is placed on the road, which will interfere with passing traffic, so it is a violator.
- In this situation, the driver will stop for boarding passengers with the engine running and will not become an intruder. But if the stop lasts longer, then the situation will be regarded as non-compliance with traffic rules, since he enters the zone of sign 3.27.
- Parking or stopping on the broken yellow line is prohibited. By parking your vehicle here, the driver violates the rules of the road.
- By placing directly behind a sign with an arrow pointing down, traffic rules are not violated. If the arrow is set in the opposite position, it violates.
- On this section of the road, it is allowed to stop for loading and unloading cargo or boarding and disembarking a passenger with the engine running.
- Car "B" parked behind the T-shaped intersection does not apply to violators, the zone of the sign is not extended to it. TC "A" - violates.
- Truck driver violates traffic rules. Although he did not stop under the sign, but with his body he blocked his visibility for other motorists.
In addition, it can be said that stopping and parking trucks in a residential area is prohibited, as well as in the following places:
- Close to pedestrian crossings.
- Crossroads.
- Under bridges and other complex technical structures.
- Near a public transport stop with markings.
Parking in front of the pedestrian crossing
Driving through the city center and seeing how other car owners park, many people ask themselves the question: how many meters in front of a pedestrian crossing can you park a car?
When planning a stop next to them, you need to take into account compliance with the following rules of DD clause 12.4:
- The distance to it and the sign must be at least 5 m.
- It is impossible to stop on the zebra itself.
- It is forbidden to run into the markings to let pedestrians through.
- As an exception, we can cite cases when the car broke down, became a participant in an accident.
It should be borne in mind that parking a car immediately behind the crossing is allowed, as it does not become an obstacle to the view of drivers and pedestrians trying to cross the road.
On the opposite side, the requirements are identical: stopping and parking are allowed only after passing through a zebra. Therefore, if the driver is thinking about whether it is possible to drop off passengers at a pedestrian crossing, it is better to drive a few meters and stop behind it.
Video: Parking in front of a pedestrian crossing.
At the crossroads
The conditions for parking or stopping at road intersections and at intersections are disclosed in clause 12.4 of the SDA. The distance to them must be at least 5 m, which is very clear.
However, the situation regarding the exit from adjacent territories (for example, gas stations) requires a closer analysis:
- In the first case, the concept from clause 1.2 should be considered: "The adjacent territory is a site located next to the road, not used for through passage of cars." From this it follows that she and the road are completely different elements. In turn: "The carriageway is a section of the road used for the movement of cars." Here the conclusion is that the carriageways exist directly on the roads, they cannot be in the adjacent territories.
- Another option for the development of logical thought uses a similar paragraph of the SDA. We analyze the term "Road". This is a separate strip of land or a complex technical structure intended for the movement of cars. It includes 1 or more lanes, a tram track, a sidewalk, a dividing strip and a shoulder. It follows from this that any band can be subsumed under this concept. Thus, if the car was able to drive somewhere, then its track can be equated to the road. Naturally, in the case of the adjacent territory, it will also be expensive. From this we can conclude that the intersection of two roads is a crossroads, this is characterized in the previously used SDA paragraph.
Video: Parking rules at intersections.
Based on this, stopping near the intersection with the exit from the adjacent territory, it is advisable to retreat from it problematic 5 m, since the traffic police officer can regard the situation in his own way.
The drawn up protocol will have to be challenged in court, which, in turn, will also be based on the chosen decision.
Exceptions to the rules
Not so long ago, the Government defined a category of citizens who have a legal basis to neglect some of the prohibition signs.
In accordance with the "Basic provisions for the admission of the vehicle to operation."
These include the following individuals:
- Disabled 1 and 2 groups.
- Persons accompanying them.
- Parents and guardians of children with disabilities.
All these citizens who have official confirmation of benefits in their hands can neglect the following signs:
- The time of validity of this sign, indicating the day of the week and time.
- Limit the maximum parking time.
- Characterize the method of parking cars (along,).
- Provide information about the relation of the site to paid parking.
- It is reported that a tow truck is working in the zone of action of the sign.
- They indicate a ban on parking of all cars, except official vehicles.
- Plates 8.4.9 - 8.4.15. Most often they are installed near budgetary institutions: the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the court, the clinic, the hospital, the NSF, and so on.
Thanks to such a sign, arbitrarily installed next to sign 3.27, the driver who left the car in its coverage area will receive a guaranteed fine for non-compliance with the rules.
Video: Signs of additional information.
Penalties for violations
Full details regarding fines related details are disclosed in . The most common situations are listed in the table below.
Table 1. Penalties for violation of parking rules.
It must be taken into account that when paying within the first 20 days from the date of the decision, the driver has legal grounds for a 50% discount. This condition is spelled out in part 1 "Execution of decisions on the imposition of fines."
If a car parked in violation caused an accident as a result of which a person received serious bodily injury, “Causing serious bodily harm through negligence” can be applied to the culprit. In this case, the penalty may be as follows.
Table 2. Penalty for violation under Art. 118 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
The problem with illegal parking is gradually being solved, drivers are becoming more attentive on the roads. However, this cannot be said for everyone. Many people continue to leave their cars in the area of the signs.
No one can argue with the idea that movement is life. By the way, a moving car is no exception to this law of existence. But there are situations when the movement has to be interrupted. In the SDA, this process is called “parking” or “stopping”. In a modern metropolis, by the way, the problem of stopping, and even more so parking, is sometimes much more serious than the movement itself. Still would! Cities are filled to overflowing with cars, and more and more often it turns out that the driver does not stop where it is possible, but where he can perch. And sometimes such tricks, such as parking under the sign "Parking is prohibited", end in fines, and in the worst case, sending the car to a car impound.
Description of the no parking sign
First of all, you should consider what the “No Parking” sign looks like. It has a round shape and is approximately 0.25 m in diameter. In places where there are no settlements, its diameter should be at least 0.6 m. It has a blue background with a red border and slanted stripes.
About parking next to the "No Parking" sign
Violations can lead to very serious consequences for motorists who are inattentive and careless about road signs and markings. Every year the amount of fines for non-compliance with these regulations is growing. So, for example, in the code published in 2014, for ignoring the requirement “Parking is prohibited” (sign), a fine is imposed in the amount of 1,500 rubles in any locality, and in Moscow and St. Petersburg it increases to 3,000 rubles. By the way, depending on the situation, the detention of the vehicle is also provided.
Therefore, in order to avoid this, you need to clearly understand how and in what territory this sign operates, and take into account all the subtleties prescribed in the traffic rules on the road.
What is the difference between "stop" and "stop"
For many road users, the concepts of "stop" and "parking" cause difficulties, and it is necessary to distinguish between them in order not to fall under the action of fines or, even worse, in an accident.
Speaking as simply as possible, these concepts differ in the duration of the process. A stop is a stoppage of traffic for a short period of time, while a stop means a longer period of time.
In the rules, a stop is explained as no more than a five-minute deliberate braking, and a stop is a cessation of further movement for a long time, which is also not related to the embarkation or disembarkation of passengers, as well as the unloading or loading of luggage.
How does a stop sign work?
Since, of course, it cannot allow parking either, we will call it like this: the sign "Stopping and parking is prohibited."
It is installed on a variety of sections of roads and, if there are no other signs that interrupt the operation of the described one, then its ban is extended to the first intersection. Please note that exits from yards or any sections do not equate to an intersection! If there are no intersections in the settlement where this sign is installed, then the ban is extended to the border of this settlement.
Most often, the mentioned sign is placed on bridges, where the driver will find it difficult to determine the boundaries of the structure on the move.
The restriction of its action has the same rules as for the No Parking sign. We will consider them below.
The effect of the sign "Stop, parking is prohibited"
Let's figure out what exactly and to whom this sign prohibits. The main thing to remember is that it does not allow stopping, disembarking, embarking passengers from any mode of transport, except for public transport and taxis.
The sign is located on the right side of the road or above it. True, its action is limited only to the side where it is installed. By the way, please note that the presence of this sign implies a ban on stopping at sites built for public transport, as well as in the so-called "pockets".
Roadsides and sidewalks are part of the highway, and, accordingly, are also subject to the described sign.
Is it possible to stop under the sign "Parking prohibited"
Now let's move on to a more "democratic" "No Parking" sign. Drivers, especially those who have recently been behind the wheel, forget that it does not only allow parking, and stopping in the area of \u200b\u200bit is possible. If yours is under the sign for no more than five minutes, as well as in cases where traffic is stopped in order to drop off or pick up a passenger (equivalently, in order to unload or take on cargo), then the requirements of the rules will not be violated. In these cases, a stop is made that is not regulated by the named sign.
Limits of the ban
It is very important to clearly understand the boundaries within which the “No Parking” sign operates. They start directly from the place where it is installed and stretch to the sections of the road that will be listed:
- this may be the nearest intersection in the direction of your movement;
- the zone can last up to the edge of the settlement;
- the border of action can also continue to the place where the sign "End of the zone of all restrictions" is installed.
As soon as you cross the named sections of the highway, parking of vehicles is again allowed (you should immediately make a reservation that only if there are no other prohibiting mechanisms prescribed in section No. 12 of the SDA). But the action of the described sign is not interrupted in places where there is an exit from areas adjacent to the road (for example, yards or residential areas), as well as at intersections with unpaved roads, if there is no road in front of them. By the way, please note that these rules apply equally to the described sign, and to the sign "Stopping and parking is prohibited", which was mentioned above.
What information is provided by additional signs on the signs "Parking is prohibited"
Their area of operation is sometimes and is more specifically indicated with the help of additional information on the plates or signs attached next to them.
So, for example, a plate with an arrow pointing up and a distance designation (822), combined with our sign, will indicate the distance to which the prohibition applies. As soon as you pass it, the ban ends and you can stop.
The plate in the form of an arrow pointing down (823) regulates the prohibition as follows: the prohibition area ends, and the sign extends to the part of the road that is located in front of the place where the road sign "Parking is prohibited" and this plate are located.
A sign in the form of a two-way arrow (up and down) once again makes it clear to the driver that he continues to be in the prohibition zone (824). That is, the mode that was set by the previous sign of the same type has not yet been canceled.
Plates in the form of arrows pointing left and right (825 or 826) are used to limit parking along the facade of any buildings. Parking under the "No Parking" sign is not allowed from the place where the sign is installed and in the direction of the arrows (or one of them). But the prohibition applies only to the distance indicated on the plate.
What do one or two stripes mean
In some cases, the "No Parking" sign may also include one or two vertical stripes. They indicate that parking in the no-go zone is only allowed on odd (one bar) or even (two bars) days of each month.
It is also possible that there is an alternation other than daily. In such cases, the stripes on the sign are replaced by dates that indicate the rotation period. For example, from the 1st to the 15th and from the 16th to the 31st, alternating from the 1st to the 16th, every month.
When is it possible to park in the restricted area?
By the way, the action of the sign "Parking is prohibited" is also reduced with the help of the sign "Parking" (64). But it should be noted that this sign must in this case be combined with a plate indicating the distance to which the zone of this prohibition extends (821).
Along with the “Parking is prohibited” sign, in some cases, you can also see the markings on the asphalt, in the form of a yellow dashed line, which is applied over the curb, along the edge of the sidewalk or carriageway. It is easier to say that if the marking ends, then the restriction is also terminated, and parking is allowed again.
By the way, you must remember that the sign described in our article prohibits parking only on the side of the road where it is located.
Who is allowed to stop under a prohibition sign
Road users should remember that, on legal grounds, the described sign can be ignored by drivers who are disabled people of groups I and II, or transport that transports such people of any age (including children), provided that this means of transportation is marked with the sign "Disabled". Stopping under the sign "Parking is prohibited" is also allowed for taxi cars, if they include a taximeter, as well as cars that are the property of the federal postal service of the Russian Federation. The specified behavior is also allowed for vehicles that serve organizations, retail outlets, etc., if there are no workarounds for them in the area of the ban.
Conflict situations
Now, after reading the material provided to your attention, it may become easier for you to figure out exactly how the “No Parking” sign and its more “strict colleague” - “Stopping is prohibited” work.
Unfortunately, quite often situations arise when a driver is punished for parking where it is prohibited, but at the same time, stopping is allowed. In these cases, the inspector who draws up the report must provide evidence that the movement was stopped for a period of more than 5 minutes and was not related to loading and unloading. Remember this! But do not violate the established rules yourself, since only such behavior will help establish order on the roads, which means that the way to work or home will not be associated with a lot of unpleasant situations for you.

In addition to the preferential category, there are a number of exceptions that allow parking in prohibited places. The conditions are distributed in accordance with the information placed on the additional information signs installed next to the prohibitory ones: 8.4.1 - 8.9.1.
They govern the following:
An example is their possible use on the roads:
- The action of the sign lasts until the end of the yellow marking line, applied next to the sidewalk. Stopping and parking is allowed everywhere outside of it.
- Under the sign "Stop is prohibited" there is another 8.2.3, in this situation it means that its action is directed forward.
