Thanks for the investigation. I learned a lot. Even it’s public street, not a public parking lot, legal parking is above the legal driving. If the driver hits the legal parking vehicle is the driver’s responsibility. This is so ridiculous! The one parked his vehicle on the public street is the one created a dangerous condition for the drivers. The main purpose of a street is for people to travel. From one place to another. I don’t mean you need stop the parking on public street law, but make it more acceptable. I remember when my kids were in IU, we had 3 cars, when their friends came visit, everyone parked on the grass area to leave more room for other drivers to pass. Things changed within the legal parking on the public street rule. I felt so sorry for my neighbor who bumped into officer’s vehicle. It must be a big shock for her. To tell the truth under such a hazardous situation, a person insist to hold his privileges of legal parking on the public street despite the harmful fact is intentionally create troubles for the other drivers. It is necessary to make this legal parking on the public street rule into a safe one for the drivers.
