Texas · Signs, Signals & Markings
Texas drivers may not park within how many feet of a stop sign, yield sign, or traffic control signal?
- 10 feet
- 20 feet
- 30 feet
- 50 feet
Correct answer
30 feet
Why this is correct
Texas prohibits parking within 30 feet of a stop sign, yield sign, flashing beacon, or traffic signal. The clearance preserves visibility so drivers can see the sign and cross traffic. A vehicle parked too close often forces other drivers to pull into the intersection to see — a common cause of urban side-swipe and angle crashes.
