What causes traffic jams in Egypt?

Is it legal to cross a solid white line in an apartment parking lot?

It depends. If the parking lot is private property, normal traffic laws are not enforceable, so, legally, you can do whatever you want. If the parking lot is public property, then traffic laws apply, and you should obey them. That said, a solid white line is NOT a restriction under normal traffic laws; rather it is an advisory indicator. So, crossing a solid white line is technically legal even on public property.

Is it illegal to pull forward out of a parking spot if there is no one parked in front of you?

Is this taking place on private property parking lot (like a supermarket lot) or in a parking location on a public street? If on a private parking lot it would probably not be illegal to pull out of the spot in the manner you say, traffic laws generally do not apply on private parking lots. However, if you do it without due caution and hit someone or something you can be charged with the collision.


Car accident in parking lot?

Since parking lots are not considered public roadways - normal traffic regulations do not apply there and it is doubtful that you will find a police agency who will conduct a collision investigation to determine 'fault.' It will be up to your insurance companies to decide which party the the fault lies with.


Are police able to make traffic stop in driveway?

Yes. Being on private property does not insulate you from law enforcement. If police observe something that warrants a traffic stop, they can make it regardless of whether you are in your driveway, a private parking lot, or a public street. There are some limits to what police can observe on private property, but these generally don't come up in a traffic situation, because it is normally a case where they can see from the public road or the offense occurred on the public road.


Do the facilities such as parking have to be open to the public at a public park or can they be reserved for residents?

I was leaving a commercial parking lot sitting at a 45 degree angle but fully in the lane waiting for traffic to move What are the traffic laws about being hit while stopped waiting for traffic?

Did someone back into you from a parking space? If so, I would think they are at fault since a driver is required to check carefully before pulling out. In addition parking lot speed limits are usually 5-10 mph. Did you call the police? I am guessing not or you would know whom they considered to be at fault.Added: If your vehicle was still physically located on the parking lot, the parking lot is not considered a public roadway and normal traffic regulations do not apply there(other than driving w/o a license and DUI). Therefore this becomes a civil matter of damage to private property rather than a criminal matter of a violation of traffic laws.If your description of events is truthful, it SOUNDS as if the other party is liable HOWEVER this is a battle that your insurance company and the other party will have to battle out.


Can an employer tell you not to park in public parking?
