What distance should your car be from the curb when parked parallel?
For safe parallel parking, your car's wheels should be no more than 12 inches from the curb. This specific distance helps prevent the vehicle from interfering with traffic while ensuring it's securely parked within the setup of designated parking lanes, reducing hazards for cyclists and other vehicles using the roadway.
