AB 413: Aims to make crosswalks safer by prohibiting stopping or parking a vehicle within 20 feet of a vehicle's approach to a marked or unmarked crosswalk, or 15 feet from a curb extension. Drivers will only get warnings for now, but citations can be issued starting in 2025.
Stopping 20 feet before a crosswalk seems excessive.
Not stopping to continue through the crosswalk. Stopping the car on the side of the road, and either sitting in the car(stoping) or leaving the car(parking.)
This is to increase visibility for drivers approaching the crosswalk who will continue normally
My car is like 12+ feet (a 4 door sedan) so if you account for 3 feet in front and behind for maneuvering, that's only one car length on each side of the crosswalk, 4 spaces total counting both sides of the road
Thanks, I was confused about the verbiage. That makes much more sense.
