Pavement Markings
Yellow Curb Marking
A yellow-painted curb means stopping or parking is prohibited in that space.
What This Sign Means
Municipalities paint curbs yellow to mark permanent no-parking zones — near fire hydrants, intersections, loading areas, and tight corners.
What You Should Do
Don't park or stop beside a yellow curb, even briefly and even with your flashers on.
Knowledge Test Tip
Combine with the distance rules: no parking within 5 m of a hydrant or crosswalk, and never where you'd block visibility at an intersection.
