Parking & Stopping Rules — Virginia

When you park a motorcycle at the roadside, put it at an angle to the curb with the rear wheel toward the curb. The manual's roadside parking guidance says that when you park in a parallel space next to a curb, you position the motorcycle at an angle with the rear wheel to the curb. It also notes that some cities have ordinances requiring motorcycles to park parallel instead, so the angle is the general rule and the local law can override it. The passage does not spell out a specific degree range; it only says at an angle. For three-wheel motorcycles the manual gives different advice, since their size and limited mobility make the usual angled position impractical.
