§ 66-7-352. Additional parking regulations

A. Except as otherwise provided in this section, every vehicle stopped or parked upon

a roadway where there are adjacent curbs shall be so stopped or parked with the right-hand

wheels of such vehicle parallel to and within eighteen inches of the right-hand curb. B. Local authorities may by ordinance permit parking of vehicles within [with] the

left-hand wheels adjacent to and within eighteen inches of the left-hand curb of a

one-way roadway. C. Local authorities may by ordinance permit angle parking on any roadway, except

that angle parking shall not be permitted on any federal-aid or state highway unless

the state highway commission has determined by resolution or ordered entered in its

minutes that the roadway is of sufficient width to permit angle parking without interfering

with the free movement of traffic. D. The state highway commission with respect to highways under its jurisdiction may

place signs prohibiting or restricting the stopping, standing or parking of vehicles

on any highway where in its opinion, as evidenced by resolution or order entered in

its minutes, such stopping, standing or parking is dangerous to those using the highway

or where the stopping, standing or parking of vehicles would unduly interfere with

the free movement of traffic thereon. Such signs shall be official signs and no person shall stop, stand or park any vehicle

in violation of the restrictions stated on such signs.
