Section 1Waiting, parking or just stopped
Waiting
[L25_01_0.jpg] A vehicle is stationary when it stops strictly for the time needed to let passengers get in or out, as shown by this taxi dropping off a passenger.
Your car stands still only for the time needed to let people get in or out, or to load or unload goods.
