Car permit · Parking

At which of these places is it legal to leave your car parked?

Correct answer: None of these are correct.

Answer options

  1. AWithin 5 feet of the nearest rail of a railroad crossing
  2. BIn the gap separating a safety zone from the curb
  3. CNone of these are correct Correct

Why

Leaving a car between the curb and a safety zone is prohibited, and parking right next to railroad tracks is banned everywhere (many states bar parking within 50 feet of a crossing), so neither spot is legal.

Tip Do not park near railroad tracks (in many states, not within 50 feet), and never leave your car beside a safety zone.
