Conneticut Motor Vehicle Laws.
Ch. 249, Sec. 14-307:
" (c) No person shall park any vehicle in any place where parking is prohibited or park any vehicle for a longer period than that indicated as lawful by any sign erected "
If the sign said "NO Parking", then, it was kind of foolish to stop and wait there...even for only a few minutes. Once the vehicle pulled into the space and stopped, it was then "PARKING."
What part of "NO PARKING" are you having trouble with?
