Parking is prohibited within 50 meters. According to Article 63 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law," the following provisions apply: When temporarily parking a motor vehicle on the road, the following rules must be observed: parking is prohibited at intersections, railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads less than 4 meters wide, bridges, steep slopes, tunnels, and within 50 meters of these locations. On sections of the road with no-parking signs or markings, where there are separation facilities between motor vehicle lanes and non-motor vehicle lanes or sidewalks, as well as at pedestrian crossings and construction zones, parking is prohibited. In front of bus stops, emergency stations, gas stations, fire hydrants, or fire stations, and within 30 meters of these locations, parking is prohibited except when using these facilities. Precautions for motor vehicles passing through narrow bridges: Assess vehicle width and road width: The driver must judge the vehicle's width and the road's width, staying as far left as possible while driving. Align the vehicle: Before entering a narrow road or bridge, ensure the vehicle is properly aligned. Since the road is narrow, misalignment can make passage difficult. Proper alignment reduces the risk of scraping. Mind the wheelbase difference: When passing through narrow roads or bridges, consider not only whether the front wheels can pass but also estimate if the rear wheels can clear. Observe the rear: Use the rearview mirror to check the situation behind the vehicle. Generally, if the front of the car and the mirrors can pass, the entire vehicle should be able to pass.
