"Prohibido estacionar" is a Spanish phrase that translates to "No parking" in English. This sign indicates that parking is not allowed in a specific area, often to ensure safety, maintain traffic flow, or keep access clear for emergency vehicles. These signs are commonly found in urban areas, near fire hydrants, driveways, or bus stops. Ignoring a "prohibido estacionar" sign can result in fines or having the vehicle towed, emphasizing the importance of adhering to parking regulations to avoid penalties.
