"Double parking" means standing or parking a vehicle on the roadway side of a vehicle already stopped, standing or parked at the curb. [1] This often prevents some of the vehicles in the first row from departing and always obstructs a traffic lane or bike lane (to the extent of often making the street impassable in one-way single-lane situations).
In some jurisdictions, there is a separate code-enforcement branch of government that handles illegal parking and other non-moving violations (e.g., noise and other emissions, illegal equipment). Elsewhere, there may be multiple overlapping police agencies patrolling for violations of state or federal driving regulations.
Parking violations include, but are not limited to: Parking in a prohibited space such as a bus stop, in front of a fire hydrant, a driveway, or a garage entrance. Parking on a sidewalk (unless specifically allowed by signs). Parking in, too close to, or within an intersection, railroad crossing or crosswalk. Double parking.
