May a driver park on a marked or unmarked crosswalk?
A proposed parking position for blue car A blocks the marked crosswalk on the west arm of a four-arm intersection. A’s front also extends into the junction. This is a parking example, not a car stopped as required by traffic.
Correct answer: No; crosswalks must remain clear.
Why
Parking on a marked or unmarked crosswalk is prohibited because it blocks visibility and pedestrian access.
