What are the usual rules for parking in residential streets?

Question

Residential street parking generally requires parking parallel to the curb, facing traffic flow, without blocking driveways, footpaths, intersections, or fire hydrants. Permit zones and time limits may apply.

Sienna Lawson · Answer

On residential streets, common parking rules require vehicles to park in the direction of traffic flow and remain parallel within designated distances from the curb. Vehicles must avoid blocking private driveways, footpaths, or fire hydrants, observe local permit requirements or posted time limits, and maintain safe distances from intersections.
