LAWS OF MARYLAND
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(1) WHEN NECESSARY TO AVOID CONFLICT WITH OTHER
TRAFFIC OR IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE DIRECTIONS OF A POLICE
OFFICER OR A TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICE; OR
(2) FOR THE PURPOSE OF AND WHILE ACTUALLY ENGAGED
IN LOADING OR UNLOADING PROPERTY OR PASSENGERS.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
from Art. 66 1/2, §1-158.
The term "parking", which is defined in
present Art. 66 1/2, §1-158 as synonymous with
"park", is deleted as unnecessary. The
meaning of "parking" and other verbal
variations as used in the Maryland Vehicle Law
would necessarily derive from the definition
of the verb "park".
The term "to halt" is substituted for the
present "the standing of" to avoid
incorporating in this definition the more
limited meaning of "stand", which is defined
in §11-160 of this subtitle. Although the
definition of "park" excepts temporary stops
for loading or unloading property, the
definition of "stand" does not.
Item (1) of this section is new language. It
reflects the similar concept expressed in the
definition of "parking" in present Art. 66
1/2, §11-1401(8) (which section is deleted as
unnecessary in light of this definition);
however, its language is patterned after the
more consistent and succinct formulation used
in §11—162(2) of this subtitle. The concept
is essential here; without it, for example, a
vehicle that is stopped for a red light would
be "parked" under a literal reading of the
definition.
In item (2) of this section, the term
"property" is substituted for "merchandise",
since the latter has a more limited,
mercantile connotation than is appropriate for
this definition. This change conforms to the
like change made in 1971 in the Uniform
Vehicle Code definition of "park".
The only other changes are in style.
11-145. PEDESTRIAN.
"PEDESTRIAN" MEANS AN INDIVIDUAL AFOOT.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 66 1/2, §1-159.
