Immobilisation due to emergency, traffic needs or a regulatory duty.

Immobilisation due to an emergency, traffic needs or compliance with a regulatory requirement, such as a breakdown, a traffic queue or stopping at a red light. It is not limited to queues and is not any voluntary stop or parking without leaving the vehicle. Temporary stopping and parking have separate definitions.
