Can You Park in a Yellow Line Parking Space?
1 Answers
Yellow line parking spaces cannot be used for random parking. Yellow parking spaces are designated for specific vehicles, typically buses, fire trucks, and other such vehicles. 'Designated' means only these vehicles are allowed to park there, and other vehicles cannot park arbitrarily. Otherwise, it may hinder the parking of designated vehicles and result in penalties. Parking spaces are generally divided into three colors: blue, white, and yellow. Solid blue lines usually indicate free parking, while dashed blue lines indicate time-limited free parking. White lines are for roadside paid parking, and yellow lines indicate designated parking spaces. Yellow solid lines on the roadside generally represent traffic prohibition markings, officially known as 'No Stopping or Parking Lines.' They indicate that within the marked area along the road, temporary or long-term parking is prohibited. These lines are usually painted on the front and top surfaces of road curbs or directly on the road surface where there are no curbs. The length covered by the yellow solid line indicates the no-parking zone. If the roadside has yellow dashed lines, it means long-term parking is prohibited, but temporary parking is allowed. However, there is a time limit for temporary parking, usually ranging from 3 to 5 minutes, depending on the region and specific road section.
