'one stops a car' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'parked and able to shift' is the wordplay.
'and' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'to shift' indicates an anagram.
'parked' put after 'able' is 'ableparked'.
'ableparked' is an anagram of 'BRAKE PEDAL'.
