Question 7242

- Only if there is a sign that permits angled parking.
- Yes, when the characteristics of the road or other circumstances make it advisable.
- No, under no circumstances.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, when the characteristics of the road or other circumstances make it advisable.
As a general rule, you stop and park parallel to the edge of the roadway, but you may position your vehicle differently when the road or circumstances make it advisable; no specific sign is needed. In the image, the pavement markings outline perpendicular parking spaces.
