(A) No person shall stop, stand or park a vehicle other than a bus at a bus stop, or other than a taxicab in a taxicab stand when any such stop or stand has been officially designated and appropriately posted, except that the driver of a passenger vehicle other than a bus or taxicab may temporarily stop at a bus stop or taxicab stand for the purpose of and while actually engaged in loading or unloading passengers provided such stopping does not interfere with any bus or taxicab waiting to enter or about to enter such zone; such stopping does not exceed a period of three minutes; and such stopping is not prohibited by posted signs.
(B) Except in the case of an emergency, the operator of a bus shall not stop, stand or park such vehicle upon any street at any place for the purpose of loading or unloading passengers or their baggage other than at a bus stop so designated and posted as such. Provided, however, the operator of a bus owned and operated by the municipality or a regional transit authority may temporarily stop the bus, in accordance with all other ordinances governing stopping or parking, at locations other than designated bus stops for the purpose of and while engaged in the expeditious loading or unloading of passengers and their baggage.
(C) When an operator of a bus stops the bus on a street, the right front wheel of the bus shall not be further than 18 inches from the curb and the bus shall be approximately parallel to the curb so as not to unduly impede traffic.
(D) The operator of a taxicab shall not stand or park such vehicle upon any street at any place other than in a taxicab stand so designated and posted as such, except that the operator of a taxicab may temporarily stop the taxicab, in accordance with all other ordinances governing stopping or parking, at locations other than the designated taxicab stands for the purpose of and while actually engaged in the expeditious loading or unloading of passengers.
