[quote=FlyerInHi][quote=spdrun]So wait — people in SD get all upset about others using the street to LEGALLY park? It’s a public street. No one owns the parking spots there. The worst that may happen is that you will have to walk an extra few [/quote]
It’s a territorial thing. Not that bad in San Diego. Buy in some older established towns, people might beat you up or somehow drive you out of the neighborhood. How about some old hoods in jersey where you need to hunt for street parking because they is no driveway?
Although most people park on their driveways, they just like the front of the house clear.[/quote]
Yep. It’s a matter of not blocking the view from the front of someone’s house (like when someone parks a big van or truck in front), and it’s also about being able to park in front of your own house. What if you’re bringing back a large load of groceries or other items? What if you have visitors who are handicapped and can’t walk down the street easily?
It’s just a matter of common courtesy to not park in front of other people’s houses whenever it can be avoided, especially if it’s for more than an hour or two.
