What does a 'P' sign with a blue background and wheelchair symbol indicate?

Mobility parking for permit holders only

Answer

A blue P sign with a wheelchair symbol designates parking reserved for holders of a mobility parking permit.

Question 2

You are parked legally. A 'No Parking' sign is posted after you arrive. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Move your vehicle immediately

Answer

Once a no-parking restriction is in force, you must move your vehicle regardless of when you arrived.

Question 3

When is it legal to park in front of a driveway in New Zealand?

Accepted Answer

Never — it is always illegal

Answer

Parking in front of a driveway is always illegal in New Zealand because it blocks vehicle access to the property.

Question 4

You park on a steep hill with a kerb, facing uphill. Which way do you turn your front wheels?

Accepted Answer

Away from the kerb (to the left)

Answer

Facing uphill, turn wheels away from the kerb (left); if the brakes fail, the car rolls back and the kerb stops it.

Question 5

A 'No Stopping' restriction is more severe than a 'No Parking' restriction because:

Accepted Answer

You cannot stop at all, not even momentarily

Answer

A no-stopping zone means you cannot stop your vehicle for any reason, unlike a no-parking zone where brief stops to pick up or drop off passengers may be permitted.
