Understanding the No Parking Sign and Odd-Even Rules in City Streets
The No Parking sign is one of the most familiar road signs seen on busy streets. A notable variation of this sign limits parking to vehicles with either even or odd numbers, a system used to manage congestion and improve flow in crowded areas (3.29 and 3.30 refer to these specific variations).
Starting March 1, the rules governing parking within the area affected by these signs will change. The so-called shift time, which used to indicate when parking could briefly occur on the opposite side of the road on stretches where both signs appear, has been adjusted. The new window moves the allowed parking period to later in the evening, aligning with changes in traffic patterns and safety considerations.
It is essential to note that a driver who parks in violation of a sign stating that parking is prohibited may face a fine of up to 1500 rubles. In addition, the vehicle may be subject to towing and removal from the roadway, depending on the circumstances and local enforcement rules.
