No Stopping or no Parking Signs

"No Stopping" signs mean you should not stop within a specific restricted area, not even to drop off or pick up a passenger. You can stop in this area in an emergency or if directed by emergency personnel.

"No Parking" signs allow you to stop your vehicle momentarily when:

• dropping someone off
• picking someone up

You must remain behind the wheel and should not stay parked for longer than 5-10 minutes at a time. Your vehicle must be moved immediately should traffic conditions warrant or when directed to do so by parking enforcement personnel.

As well, you cannot park your vehicle:

• within 10 m of an intersection with a painted crosswalk
• on the continuous side between the crosswalks at a “T” intersection
• within 2 m of a fire hydrant
• in an alley unless the vehicle is being actively loaded or unloaded and is not blocking traffic
• within 3 m of an alley that intersects with a street
• within 2 m of any private driveway
• more than 0.6 m away from the curb
