How long can you park in a no-parking zone?

[LeFrank]

In a no-parking zone, you can typically stop for about three minutes. When parking in such areas, do not turn off the engine, and the driver should remain in the vehicle. If the driver needs to exit the vehicle, there must be someone inside who can drive and holds a valid driver's license, to avoid situations where traffic police request the vehicle to be moved but no one is available. Apart from areas with clear signs prohibiting long-term parking, there are other road sections to be cautious about. These include roads with solid yellow lines along the curb, which indicate no parking of any vehicles is allowed. A dashed yellow line means no long-term parking is permitted, and you should stop briefly and leave immediately. Additionally, crosswalks, bicycle lanes, dedicated lanes, tunnels, and steep slopes are all areas where parking is prohibited.
