In a no-stopping zone, stopping your vehicle is not allowed for any reason. This rule keeps traffic moving smoothly and prevents hazards by ensuring clear lanes and sight lines in areas where stopping could disrupt flow—such as near intersections, bends, or pedestrian areas. The statement that stopping is prohibited to keep traffic moving safely captures that purpose. Other options describe zones where you may stop briefly for a rest, to pick up passengers, or where parking is allowed, which are not no-stopping zones because they permit some stopping.
