What does a white parking space line mean?

[McHolden]

White parking space lines indicate paid parking spaces. According to national standards, the color of the markings is used to differentiate roadside parking spaces. White markings indicate that the parking space is a paid parking spot, typically located on sidewalks or setback lines. Here is additional information: 1. White parking spaces: Indicate that the parking space is a paid parking spot. In areas with white markings, roadside signs should be checked to confirm whether parking is actually allowed, as not all white lines on the roadside denote parking spaces. Even in paid parking zones, parking is not always permitted; it depends on the instructions on roadside signs, such as "No parking during the day," "Free at night," "Overtime penalties," or "Paid hours." 2. Yellow parking spaces: Indicate that the parking space is reserved for specific vehicles. Reserved parking spaces are usually designated for special vehicles, such as fire trucks. If the yellow line is a solid line, it means "No parking," and parking is not allowed in areas marked with a solid yellow line or yellow curb. If the yellow line is dashed, it allows temporary parking but prohibits long-term parking.
