At a place with this sign, I stopped the car for just a few minutes to shop at a convenience store.

この標識のある場所で、コンビニで買い物をするため数分だけ車を止めた。

This statement is FALSE

Explanation

Wrong. Where stopping and parking are banned, you may stop only as required by law, by police order, or to prevent danger. Stopping to shop is not allowed.
