I am American, and it confuses me, which perhaps proves the point.
In particular, why is it necessary to point out that parking is prohibited from 11 to 1 on Tuesday, when stopping of any kind is already prohibited on a superset of that time (7:30-4 M-F)?
- detaro 6y agoIt's not M-F, it's school days, i.e. not in school holidays?
- umanwizard 6y agoI read “tow-away school days” and “No stopping M-F” as separate regulations, because they are divided by a horizontal line. I don’t drive anymore (and when I did, it was mainly in suburbs) so perhaps I’m just not familiar with conventions?
- Izkata 6y agoLook at the bottom bolt on the "No Parking" sign: It's partially covered by the later-added "No Stopping" sign. Also, because this is apparently in a school zone, you have to think about how stopping is different from parking: You don't have to pull into a parking zone to drop off your kid, you can just stop momentarily in the middle of the street. During the non-overlap hours, you can pull over and park, just not stop in the street.
