What does a red painted curb mean?

1. You can stop temporarily

2. No stopping, standing, or parking

3. Parking is allowed with a permit

4. A loading zone

The correct answer is: No stopping, standing, or parking

A red painted curb signifies a prohibition on stopping, standing, or parking. This restriction is in place to ensure safety and maintain clear access for emergency vehicles or to keep roadways unobstructed for traffic. The presence of a red curb is a clear visual cue that stopping in that area can lead to potential hazards or impede the flow of traffic. Therefore, drivers should seek alternative locations for parking or stopping to comply with these regulations and avoid penalties.
