Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
Under the handbook’s stated parking rule, what minimum clearance should you leave from a fire hydrant, while also obeying local signs and parking controls?
Correct answer: 10 feet.
Why
The Massachusetts handbook lists no parking within ten feet of a fire hydrant. Do not block access for firefighters. Parking regulations may also be set and signed locally; obey the applicable controls. This question concerns a hydrant, not permission to stop anywhere outside a fire lane.
