I received a summons for parking too close to a stop sign. How close is too close?

Many people have expressed surprise when receiving a summons for the violation of this state statute. Please be aware that it is improper to park in, among others, the following locations:

  • Within 50 feet of stop sign
  • Within an intersection
  • On a crosswalk
  • In front of a driveway
  • Within 25 feet of crosswalk
  • Within 10 feet of fire hydrant
  • Within 20 feet of driveway entrance to fire station
  • Within 50 feet of nearest rail of railroad crossing
