What is the minimum distance from a pedestrian crosswalk required for parking?

The minimum distance from a pedestrian crosswalk required for parking is 10 meters. This regulation is in place to ensure clear visibility for both drivers and pedestrians at crosswalks, which enhances safety for all road users. Parking too close to a crosswalk can obstruct sightlines, create hazards, and limit the ability of drivers to see pedestrians who are about to cross the road. By maintaining a distance of 10 meters, drivers have a better field of vision, making it easier to spot pedestrians and respond appropriately, thus reducing the likelihood of accidents at these critical areas.

In areas where the distances are shorter, there could be an increased risk of collisions, particularly in busy urban settings where pedestrian traffic is high. This regulation contributes to overall road safety and promotes responsible parking practices.
