Parking & Stopping Rules

You park legally on a street at night. To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, a good practice is to ensure:

  • A.You leave your high beams on after parking
  • B.Your vehicle is parked with the flow of traffic so its rear reflectors face approaching traffic
  • C.You park facing oncoming traffic
  • D.You leave a door open as a marker
Correct answer

B. Your vehicle is parked with the flow of traffic so its rear reflectors face approaching traffic

Why

Parking with the flow of traffic places your rear reflectors toward approaching vehicles. Parking against traffic hides reflectors and confuses other drivers.
