However, the relaxation of the rule does not apply to waiting for the children to leave school, CNA reported Friday (Nov. 20). There is also a maximum age limit of seven years for the children involved.
The necessary changes were announced in June, but the Ministry of Transportation announced Friday that they would start to be implemented on Dec. 1. The new measure amounted to an expansion of the rule from only covering children with impaired movements to all children up to the age of seven, officials said.
Stopping on a red line to drop children off would still be banned, though if the practice did not pose a danger or a hindrance to other traffic, leniency might apply, according to the CNA report.
