What it means

Om verkeersvloei te verseker en te verhoed dat bestuurders se sig deur stilstaande voertuie belemmer word. Moenie stop nie, behalwe om 'n verkeerslig of 'n verkeersbeampte te gehoorsaam of om 'n botsing te vermy.

Where you’ll see it

On any public road. The sign may be supplemented by a red “no stopping line”.

Op enige openbare pad. Die teken kan aangevul word deur 'n rooi “geen-stillshou-lyn”.
