A2Difficulty 2/5

Without a municipal ordinance or signs permitting that parking, may you leave your motorcycle on the pavement simply because you cannot find another parking place?

Correct answer

No, because parking on the pavement is generally prohibited.

No. Parking on pavements and other pedestrian areas is generally prohibited. Lack of another space or apparently causing no obstruction is not by itself permission. Article 40.2.e of the Traffic Act allows municipal ordinances to regulate pavement parking for two-wheeled vehicles under conditions protecting pedestrian movement. Where such rules exist, their conditions and signs must be followed; this scenario has no such permission.
