Which parking-related violation occurs when stopping or parking in violation of signage?

• A. Stop/stand/park in violation of signage
• B. Parked on sidewalk
• C. Parked within 15 ft of fire hydrant
• D. Parked driver's side to curb/Parked more than 12 in. from curb

Answer: (A)

Stopping or parking in a place that a sign forbids is not allowed. Signs and traffic-control devices tell you where you may stop, stand, or park, and ignoring those restrictions creates a violation. This option captures the general rule: you’re violating the traffic sign’s instruction about where stopping or parking is permitted.

The other examples describe specific, separate parking rules (like parking too close to a hydrant, or how the vehicle must be oriented or spaced from the curb). Those are different violations with their own rules, but they don’t address the broad concept of violating a sign that prohibits stopping or parking.
