Hi folks

Does anybody have a information explaining what a sign "No parking here to corner" means? I mean there is a sign between two corners. To which corner it refers ?

Thank You

Well if there is no arrow I would assume it would be the whole block.

For whole block it should be "No parking on this side of the street"

I believe it means the corner in the direction cars travel, so if you're parking in a northbound lane, from the sign, north, no parking.

Make no assumptions. Parking tickets are revenue producers. Ambiguous signs make is easier to give out more tickets. It could mean any corner, driveway, curb cut or bend in the road.

Park someplace else if you want to be free of ticket fear...

Exactly. I'm sure that most of the drivers think like that.
