Parking rules around schools are in place to help keep children safe, however, many drivers don't really understand what the most common signs mean. Parkes, Forbes and Lachlan Shire Councils' Road Safety and Injury Prevention Officer, Melanie Suitor, says the most common parking signs in school zones are 'No Stopping' and 'No Parking' signs. "The parking rules around schools protect sight distances, provide safe drop off opportunities and minimise confusion where children are crossing roads. "A 'No Stopping' sign means that the driver of a vehicle must not stop at any time on a length of road or in an area to which the 'No Stopping' sign applies - not for a minute, not for a second, not at all.
