It’s legal to park your motorcycle
- in the yellow striped access beside handicapped parking.
- within six metres of a stop sign.
- where the curb is painted yellow.
- None of the above ✓
Answer: D. None of the above
None of the above — you may not park in a handicapped access aisle, within six metres of a stop sign, or where the curb is painted yellow.
Why this is the answer
The handbook lists parking restrictions for motorcycles, and all three of these locations appear on that list. Parking is not allowed in a space for people with disabilities or in the yellow-striped access aisles beside those spaces, because those aisles are how people in wheelchairs get in and out and your bike could be hit by lift equipment. Parking is also not allowed within six metres of a stop sign or traffic light, and not where the curb is painted yellow or red.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A. in the yellow striped access beside handicapped parking. — The yellow-striped access aisle beside a handicapped space is specifically off limits, since it is the path people using wheelchairs need and your motorcycle could be damaged by lift equipment there.
- B. within six metres of a stop sign. — The handbook puts stop signs and traffic lights on the no-parking list at six metres, so parking that close is prohibited rather than legal.
- C. where the curb is painted yellow. — A curb painted yellow is a spot where a traffic sign or painted curb prohibits parking, which the handbook lists as a place you cannot leave your motorcycle.
Remember it
If the paint is yellow, think of it as a keep-out color: yellow curbs and yellow-striped aisles are both no-parking zones for your bike.
