Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
Apart from a brief passenger pickup or drop-off or another lawful exception, how much clearance must a standing or parked vehicle leave from a fire hydrant?
A hydrant stands beside an empty curb and road; no car or clearance ruler appears.
Correct answer: No closer than 15 feet.
Why
Do not stand or park within 15 feet of a fire hydrant. 13 AAC 02.340 permits momentary passenger pickup or discharge and specified traffic-control exceptions. Remaining in the vehicle does not otherwise remove the restriction.
