To confuse people. :)
when we drive, we drive on the road. its just a way of GOING FARTHER. it would make no sense to park in the middle of the road!
Driveways are called so because they are private roads designed for vehicles to drive up to a house or building, allowing access for parking. Conversely, parkways were originally intended as scenic roads for leisurely drives, often lined with parks or greenery, but they typically do not have parking spaces. The terminology reflects historical usage rather than current practicalities, leading to the somewhat paradoxical terms we use today.
Think of it this way: parkways tend to go through scenic places, such as parks, whilst driveways are usually the only parts of one's property that one actually drives on.
i have no clue!
Driving on a driveway or parking in a parkway will damage muffler bearings,bend your Johnson rods,and loosen the ka-niffle pins holding the blinker fluid tank...dont say you were not warned.........
The terms "parkway" and "driveway" originated at a time when they served different functions. "Parkways" were designed for leisurely driving and were often lined with trees and greenery, while "driveways" were meant for accessing a residence or building. Over time, language evolved and the original meanings became less relevant, leading to the current use of these terms.
Some funny questions to include in a slide presentation could be: "Why do we park in driveways and drive on parkways?" or "If money doesn't grow on trees, why do banks have branches?" These questions can add humor and engage the audience during the presentation.
When McDonald's is actually owned by someone named McDonald. When driveways are finally changed to parkways....and parkways to driveways... When people are no longer able to discern the meanings of words, phrases, and sentences without a disclaimer explaining what they really mean .....
No. Commercial vans and trucks can run on thruways, not parkways. Parkways are resticted to cars only. There are low underpasses that vans and trucks will hit.
