A driver has double-parked their vehicle. Have they acted correctly?

Correct answer

No, because double parking is prohibited.

No. Parking alongside another parked vehicle is prohibited, even with hazard lights on or apparently enough room for others to pass. Do not confuse parking with a voluntary stop: the latter lasts under two minutes and the driver does not leave the vehicle. This does not mean every double-row stop is permitted; prohibitions, safety, traffic flow and local rules must be respected.
