Stopping or parking is considered to be in a dangerous place, or to seriously obstruct traffic, when it creates a risk or obstacle for any user of the public road. As a general rule, motor vehicles may not park on pavements, unless parking there is expressly signed. There are local by-laws that may allow parking on pavements under particular rules, but as a general rule it is prohibited.
