Regulatory sign

No stopping (clearway)

A blue circle with a red ring and a red diagonal cross marks a clearway. You must not stop on the main carriageway, even to pick up or set down passengers, except in an emergency.

When you see it

  • Do not stop on the main carriageway at any time on a clearway.
  • It keeps fast or busy roads flowing freely.
  • Stop only in a genuine emergency or where a separate sign permits.
  • Use a lay-by or side road if you need to stop.
