Explanation
Curb colors indicate specific parking rules, and it's important to follow them to avoid fines or towing:
- Red curbs mean no parking, standing, or stopping at any time - these areas are often designated as fire lanes or emergency access zones.
- Blue curbs are reserved for vehicles displaying a valid disabled placard or license plate.
- Green curbs allow limited-time parking; always check posted signs for exact time limits.
Keep in mind that curb color meanings can vary slightly by city or county, so always look for accompanying signs to understand local restrictions.
