Parking and Stopping Regulations

Parking might not seem as critical as driving, but improper parking can be dangerous and is often illegal. Knowing where and how to park (and not to park) is part of being a responsible driver.

This section covers essential parking rules, including:

  • ✅ General parking guidelines
  • ⛰️ Hill parking techniques
  • 🎨 Colored curb meanings
  • 🚫 Illegal parking locations

Proper parking helps ensure safety, keeps traffic flowing, and prevents citations or towing.
