A driver must not stop on a children's crossing, or on the road within 20 metres before the crossing and 10 metres after the crossing unless the driver stops at a place on a length of road, or in an area, to which a parking control sign applies and the driver is permitted to stop at that place.
Stopping your vehicle too close to a children's crossing may mean that a child entering the crossing can't see or be seen by an approaching car. When a children's crossing is in operation (i.e. when the flags are displayed) you must stop.
