No parkingNew Zealand
1. No parking
No parking indicates that vehicles may not be left parked at the location or along the section of road covered by the restriction. Depending on local law, a driver may still be allowed to stop briefly to pick up or drop off passengers or to load or unload goods, provided stopping itself is not prohibited.
A no-parking restriction may apply continuously or only during specified times, days, vehicle categories or sections of road. Its exact extent and exceptions are determined by the traffic sign, supplementary panels, road markings and local traffic regulations.
Does a New Zealand timed parking sign allow you to remain after its stated limit?
No. A sign marked, for example, P20 limits the permitted parking stay to 20 minutes during its applicable operating period. It does not authorise stopping in a separate no-stopping or clearway area.
