What does article 157 of the highway code say

This article refers to the suspension of vehicle movement with the driver moving away for a long time. In a nutshell, it deals with parking and the limits imposed to indicate the correct parking mode which allows you to avoid heavy fines.

Parking means the car parked with the engine off. Often one parks at random where it is convenient, perhaps blocking entrances, garages, therefore not respecting intersections or parking restrictions, perhaps for a urgent errand of a few minutes.

It doesn’t matter the fact that little time is lost, regardless of this, there are points where parking is forbidden and the rule must be absolutely respected. Alternatively there is the penalty that goes from 218 to 435 euros.

When we talk about stopping, we refer to the momentary suspension of travel, the driver remains inside the vehicle and does not move away. Also in this case, as in that of the stop there are rules to follow.

For example, the safety distance must be respected, because in the event of an accident, those who have not respected the distances risk very serious consequences, especially next year.
