Traffic rules
Portugal
1. No stopping
No stopping means that vehicles are not permitted to stop voluntarily at the indicated location, even briefly for picking up or dropping off passengers or loading or unloading goods. It is a stricter restriction than a no-parking rule.
A no-stopping restriction may be indicated by a traffic sign, road marking or local traffic regulation. Drivers should continue to a place where stopping is permitted unless they are forced to stop by traffic conditions, an emergency or another legal requirement.
How far before a Portuguese pedestrian crossing must you keep clear?
Stopping and parking are prohibited on marked pedestrian or cycle crossings and less than 5 metres before them.
