Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
You want to stop at a store. The only open space is beside a curb painted yellow. What does a yellow curb generally allow?
Blue A approaches an open curb space painted yellow. No unloading activity or parking position is selected.
Correct answer: Stopping only to load or unload, and you must stay with the car
Why
Curb colors show special parking rules, but each locality sets its own exact meanings, so read any signs near the curb. Generally, white means a short stop to pick up or drop off passengers, and red means do not stop, stand or park. The manual also lists yellow-curb areas among the places where you may not park.
