Question

Are there any restrictions on parking a 7.5 ton recovery wagon on the street.?

Answer 1

Order 1993 provides that Any person who, without lawful authority or reasonable excuse, in any way intentionally or negligently obstructs the free passage along a road shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale (currently £500).

Answer 2

You may park a vehicle of over 7.5 tonnes operating weight on any road overnight, so long as it is considered to be a 'one-off'. The 'O' license for the vehicle will designate where the vehicle should be kept overnight. Parking it continuously on-street overnight is likely to contravene the 'O' license, meaning that the driver/operator/owner is breaking the law.

Answer 3

Call city hall or the local police.

signs will be posted if there are restrictions

Answer 7

Depends on the width of the street as long as other vehicles can pass it should be ok on a temp basis but a responsible driver would park it somewhere more suitable if it`s going to be long term
