When driving along parked vehicles, you should maintain a distance of at least three feet to ensure safety and avoid potential hazards, such as a door opening unexpectedly. This distance helps prevent collisions and allows for enough space for pedestrians or cyclists who may be navigating in that area. Always be alert and ready to react to sudden movements from parked vehicles.
