חוק לתיקון פקודת התעבורה (מס' 122), התשע"ח-2018Law to Amend the Traffic Ordinance (No. 122), 2018 · automatic translation · suggest a correction

Official summary of the law (Knesset)

The law was passed in second and third reading on 7 May 2018. The law establishes a new criminal offense in the Traffic Ordinance prohibiting parking a vehicle in a manner that blocks another vehicle. The prohibition will also apply in cases where a person parks their vehicle in an area located alongside a parking space designated by law for a person with a disability, thereby preventing that person from entering or exiting their vehicle bearing a disabled parking permit. Since the provisions of the Traffic Ordinance and the regulations thereunder generally apply in an open place where the public has a right of passage, the law establishes, for the avoidance of doubt, that the prohibition will also apply in privately owned parking areas. Regarding enforcement of the law: as with any criminal offense, the police will be responsible for enforcing the new offense, and since this is a traffic offense, local authorities will be entitled, should they wish, to anchor the offense in a municipal bylaw and enforce it through inspectors.
