In Italy, leaving the engine running in a parked car can result in fines ranging from 223 to 444 euros, aimed at reducing pollution and fuel waste. The law distinguishes between traffic-related stops, short stops for passenger pick-up, and longer waiting periods where the engine must be turned off. There is no time limit for how long one can wait before incurring a penalty. Discounts are available for early payment of fines, and some municipalities have stricter regulations. Similar laws exist in France and Germany with varying fines.
