Parking & Stopping Rules

You want to park near an intersection that has a crosswalk. The closest legal position must be at least:

  • A.20 feet from the crosswalk
  • B.5 feet from the crosswalk
  • C.10 feet from the crosswalk
  • D.40 feet from the crosswalk in all cases
Correct answer

A. 20 feet from the crosswalk

Why

New York prohibits parking within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection. The clear space preserves sight lines between drivers and people crossing.
