Art. 30 OSR · Prohibition of Stopping, Parking

The signs "No Stopping" (2.49) and "No Parking" (2.50) respectively prohibit the voluntary stopping of vehicles or their parking on the side of the road equipped with such a sign. Parking of a vehicle is defined as a stationary position that is not solely for the purpose of picking up or dropping off passengers or loading or unloading goods (Art. 19, para. 1 ROSR).

When the "No Stopping" sign (2.49) is located by the roadside, the prohibition also applies to the adjacent sidewalk.

The beginning, reminder, or end of the prohibition will be indicated by the "Start of Regulation Sign" (5.05), the "Reminder Sign" (5.04), or the "End of Regulation Sign" (5.06). Depending on local conditions, the scope of the prohibition may also be indicated using the "Direction Sign" (5.07).

Temporary exceptions to the stopping prohibition will be announced by the supplementary plaque "Exception to No Stopping" (5.10) and temporary exceptions to the parking prohibition by the supplementary plaque "Exception to No Parking" (5.11) (Art. 65, para. 2).
