Difference Between ‘No Parking’ And ‘No Stopping’ Road Signs

No stopping means no stopping

Opposite of a stop sign

In other words… ‘KEEP IT MOVING’

No parking means do not park the car, turn it off, take the keys out and walk away

..but you could STOP your car to load/unload passengers (sometimes I stop there to talk on the phone, even though the official reason you’re allowed to stop is to load/unload passengers).
