Can you park on the yellow line at the curb?
1 Answers
Parking is not allowed if the curb is marked with a yellow line. Parking in the yellow line area is considered illegal parking, and violating this traffic prohibition will result in a fine of 200 yuan plus 3 demerit points. The yellow line is a type of traffic marking called a "no-parking line." Compared to the "red cross" no-parking sign, the no-parking line can more clearly and prominently indicate the specific area where parking is prohibited. Here are some details about the yellow line: 1. The yellow line painted on the curb is called a "no-parking line at the roadside." Parking is prohibited where a solid yellow line is painted, while a dashed yellow line indicates that temporary parking is allowed—stop briefly and leave immediately, but long-term parking is prohibited. 2. The "no-parking line" is set up by the public security traffic police department in accordance with the "Urban Road Traffic Signs and Markings Setting Standards." Its function is the same as the no-parking sign, reminding drivers not to park vehicles arbitrarily in this area.
