To park/camp
A motorhome is parked correctly when it is parked in a permitted location without exceeding the road markings delimiting the parking area or the time restriction, if any. In this case, it is not relevant whether its occupants are inside, as long as the activities carried out inside do not extend outside the vehicle through the use of elements such as awnings, tents, leveling devices, stabilization supports, etc. Camping is only allowed in designated areas (campgrounds or parking lots, according to the regulations of each autonomous community).
