There is a parking ban on Monday from 00:00 to 06:00.
If you have been there from Sunday evening to Monday morning, you will be fined.
So you had to move the car no later than 23:59 on Sunday.
Night between Sunday and Monday? If so, the third yellow sign says “Parking is forbidden on Mondays between 0-6”.
You’ve been standing there during cleaning day. Which of course is bullshit, they will give you a ticket whether they hold up their end of the bargain or not. This is Stockholm nowadays. I’m sorry 🙁
Sweden is very tricky with parking signs, some of them are even designed to easily be able to ticket you.
IMO, that was actually pretty straightforward, provided that by Sunday night you really mean Monday morning.
Might be the “Boende Ö” that’s tripping you up.
I got a parking ticket 3 times until i figured out i have to register the car with the local, can’t find the word… Government. To park at certain places around where I lived.
Was a while ago and have since moved where stuff like this doesn’t apply so I can’t be sure i remember it correctly
If you check the slip, you should get an explanation. I am a bit curios.
But I believe the rules to be:
* You may park here up to 24 hours.
* Monday to Friday (unless it’s a holiday) 7 – 19 and Saturday (and day before a holiday) 11-17 you have to pay Taxa 3.
* Free parking unless within above.
* Monday 0 – 6 no parking is allowed.
* Residents with permit ‘Ö’ has different rules.
Weird thing though, the ‘Boende Ö’ should be blue. But to be fair, it was some time ago I took my license and this kind of complicated parking rules wasn’t covered.
There should be a short text (a sentence or two) on the ticket that explains why you got it. In Swedish though. If it’s not the cleaning night others have suggested it might be e.g. parking too far from the curb or in the wrong direction, there are a lot of rules.
From the top frame down:
1st; **P** is for parking
2nd; **Avgift** (there is a parking charge which applies to the following times)
The next two lines (can be one to three) indicates when. A white text means weekdays, white within parenthesis (the “(11-17)”) is day before red day (including Saturdays) and a red time indicate holidays (including Sundays).
**Taxa 3** states that you are to pay according to the third tax level.
3rd; Blue circle with a red frame and one line across means no parking at the given time; Månd means Monday and 0-6 is the time. A blue circle with a red cross would mean that you’re not even allowed to stop.
4th; **Boende** indicates that it’s residential parking if you have a permit, and **Ö** stands for Östermalm in this case.
If you left your car here Sunday night, odds are that it was parked there during the no parking time on Monday morning.
A good rule of thumb is if there are many free spots on a street it usually means no parking sometimes this is not true but for the most time it is
Pretty straight forward, there’s no parking there from midnight Sunday-Monday until Monday morning at 6am. If you parked there overnight starting Sunday evening you were parked during the prohibited time.
We dont understand either.
Sunday night is untill 23:59 on Sunday, then, it becomes Monday morning starting at 00:00 when parking is not allowed as the yellow sign tells you…
Buy Sunday night, do you mean after 23.59? Because that is monday morning, which is clearly prohibited.
Call them and explain calmly that you are not Swedish and didn’t understand what månd stands for
This is numba one bullshit! 🤌
you failed car iq test, buy a bicycle
The sign clearly states that there’s a fee 7-19 on week days. If you parked your car there on Sunday night and left after 7 on Monday, you parked illegally. The fee concerns all the time your car is parked, not just when you leave the car.
The parking ticket people are seriously camping everywhere in the stockholm area. Seriously camping. I left the car for a minute cuz found it uneccesary to start a parking for 5 minutes. Came back and saw a ticket for 1300kr
Sunday night? You mean Monday morning?
Let me guess: Heleneborgsgatan?
Hi OP, are you me? LITERALLY got a ticket yesterday for the same thing. When you read it again it sure makes sense, but I would say the norm is that the “exception” (X-Y day Z of the week) is usually during daytime, like 9-16 in most places. It’s mainly used for snow removal, so stings a bit more when its 10 degrees outside 🙂
