The most suitable place for a temporary parking plate is behind the front windshield on the passenger side. Placing it here does not obstruct the driver's view or create blind spots. More details are as follows: To make the temporary parking plate easily visible, it should be placed in a highly noticeable location, which is undoubtedly the lower part of the car's front windshield. Additionally, it must be positioned without affecting driving visibility. Therefore, the optimal location is behind the front windshield on the passenger side. There are also temporary parking plates on the market designed to be placed outside the front windshield, but these are not recommended. While they may work fine for short-term use, prolonged exposure to sun and rain will significantly reduce the adhesive's effectiveness. A temporary parking plate consists of a stand (base), digits, and a brightness LED light.

The driver must not leave the vehicle, and any vehicle obstructing traffic must move away promptly. Before the vehicle comes to a complete stop, doors must not be opened, and passengers must not enter or exit. Doors must not block other vehicles or pedestrians. Parking is prohibited in the following areas: opposite sidewalks with railings (or green barriers), crosswalks, construction zones (except for construction vehicles), and near obstacles. Parking is also prohibited at intersections, railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads, bridges, steep slopes, tunnels, and within 50 meters of these locations.
