New South Wales · Driver Knowledge Test (DKT) · Road rules

How close to a pedestrian crossing may you park?

The answer

  • Right up to the crossing
  • No closer than 20 m before and 10 m after the crossing Correct
  • Within 5 m if you're quick
  • Parking rules don't apply near crossings

Why that's the answer

You must not stop within 20 metres before or 10 metres after a pedestrian crossing — parked cars there hide pedestrians from approaching drivers.
