Parking

If the street you are on has a curb, park as close to it as you can but no more than 12 inches away. If it

has no curb, pull as far off the roadway as possible.

When you must park on the roadway, activate your four-way flashers and give enough room to passing

vehicles. Make sure your vehicle can be seen at least 500 feet in both directions.

Answer 4

If my sidewalls aren't less than an inch from the curb I get in my car and keep trying until they are.
