Does having the driver in the car count as illegal parking?
1 Answers
No, it only counts as temporary parking. Parking is divided into temporary parking and vehicle parking: temporary parking refers to situations where the driver remains in the vehicle or stops briefly for unloading goods or dropping off passengers before immediately leaving, while vehicle parking refers to stopping the vehicle and leaving it unattended. On-site penalties for illegal parking: For violations of road traffic safety laws regarding vehicle parking, if the driver is present, traffic police can point out the violation and issue a verbal warning, instructing the driver to leave immediately. Generally, as long as the driver leaves quickly, there will be no fine. If the driver refuses to leave and the parked vehicle obstructs the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, the traffic police will impose a fine. Article 63 stipulates: When temporarily parking on the road, motor vehicles must comply with the following regulations: no parking is allowed in sections with no-parking signs or markings, in sections with separation facilities between motor vehicle lanes and non-motor vehicle lanes or sidewalks, or in crosswalks and construction zones; no parking is allowed at intersections, railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads less than 4 meters wide, bridges, steep slopes, tunnels, or within 50 meters of these locations; no parking is allowed in front of bus stops, emergency stations, gas stations, fire hydrants, or fire stations, or within 30 meters of these locations, except when using these facilities; etc.
