You’ll  learn  in  part  2:  •  Your  rights  when  a  brand,  spanking  new,  parking  sign  is  installed  • What  parking  sign  regulates  your  space  when  you  park  your  car  in  two  parking  zones    •  How  do  you  know  when  a    parking  sign  regulates  your  parking  space?

Page 16: How to understand NYC parking sign language

Here’s  a  red  sign  behind  your  car,  with  the  arrow  pointing  to  your  parking  space  

Page 17: How to understand NYC parking sign language

What  parking  sign  regulates  your  parking  space?  

•  The  answer  is…  BOTH!    •  A  parking  sign  regulates  all  parking  spaces  in  the  direcJon(s)  of  the  arrow(s)  unJl  the  next  parking  sign,  or  end  of  the  block  

•  In  this  example,  the  car  is  parked  in  two  parking  zones.  The  front  end  of  the  car  is  parking  in  the  zone  regulated  by  the  street  cleaning  sign,  while  the  rear  of  the  car  is  parked  in  the  zone  regulated  by  the  red  no  standing  except…  sign  

•  The  more  restricJve  rule  wins.  You  cannot  park  here  legally  if  the  rule  on  one  sign  permits  parking,  while  the  rule  on  the  other  sign  prohibits  parking.  No  trumps  yes.
