You cannot park within 10 feet of a fire hydrant.
Most U.S. states require at least 15 feet between a fire hydrant and a parked car. Some require more, like California, which requires 20.
20 feet
Arcade Fire derived their name from an abandoned arcade situated near the home of band member Win Butler's childhood neighborhood in Texas. The term "arcade" reflects a sense of nostalgia and playfulness, while "fire" adds an element of intensity. Together, the name embodies the band's eclectic and emotional musical style.
The fire in Lebanon started in the forests of the Chouf region, particularly near the town of Aley, in mid-October 2023. It was exacerbated by dry conditions and strong winds, leading to significant damage to forested areas and nearby properties. Firefighting efforts were hampered by the terrain and weather conditions, prompting a response from local authorities and neighboring countries.
Back near the fire wall on the passenger side Edit: Actually, it is located near the firewall, but not the passenger side. Its in the middle closer to the driver side. That is, if its the 5.2L. I'm not sure of other engine sizes.
15 ft
A hydrant is a type of water pipe that sits straight up for a fire hose to be attached to. One example sentence is, "The firefighters attached their hose to the fire hydrant near the store to put out the fire in the building next to it."
Parking near a fire hydrant typically results in a fine that can vary significantly by location. In many cities, the fine can range from $50 to $200 or more, depending on local regulations. Additionally, your vehicle may be towed, incurring extra costs for retrieval. Always check local laws to understand specific fines in your area.
The distance from a fire hydrant is typically regulated by local laws or fire codes, which often require vehicles to park at least 10 to 15 feet away. This clearance ensures that firefighters have immediate access to the hydrant in case of an emergency. It's important to check your local regulations, as distances may vary by jurisdiction. Always prioritize safety and accessibility when parking near fire hydrants.
No closer than 10 feet
Why would you think there is a fine? Did you break any laws? Unless you left the car near a fire hydrant or other no parking area then you did not break the law.
About the length of a firetruck would make common sense. Access to that fire hydrant could mean the difference of life and death of people if there is a fire near by. Most cities will have painted the curb red around hydrants.
10 feet, dont park near it unless you want a hoseline run through your car.

The typical ordinance says 15 feet, but some locales say 25 feet, and some just paint large red zones on the curbs and add the appropriate signage.
In my state: Washington - you may park no closer than 20 feet to a crosswalk, and no closer than 30 feet to a stop or yield sign, and no closer than 15 feet to a fire hydrant. Your state may well have different regulations.
