Where to put your butt when backing up to the yellow zone. We have the answer.

By Paul Goldfinger, Blogfinger.net

We have learned that no part of your car can be within the yellow box.  Your rear end may not be over the line, and we are not referring to girls in their summer clothes.

The law  includes your tires, but also includes the entire posterior of your car, right out to the material end where car meets air.

There are exceptions, such as the USPS truck above which was there for a few minutes to make a delivery,  for which no policeman would ticket you,  or when parking is gridlocked and you  pull into the box, flashers on, to unload  groceries or some relative. Then you must  go on a hunt to find parking.

When I first bought in Ocean Grove, a realtor told me not to buy in the North End where I now live, They had drugs, hookers and other things. But times  have changed, and now it is quite desirable.

On the other hand we have the Asburian invasion of modern day noisy barbarians who park near our homes at the North End and who are desperate, with eyes bulging out of their heads,  to find parking, food, booze and parties.  They don’t glance around at our Victorian homes and gardens, but that’s OK—-Viva la difference.   Tell that to the North End developers who would build Asbury Park South.

CARL PERKINS.  Think out of the box, and wear those blue suede shoes if you go to A.Park to party.

    Thats not 100% accurate. While it may be how the law is enforced, it is not how it reads.

    7-7.14 Parking Prohibited at All Times Within Designated Yellow Intersection Boxes.

    No person shall park any vehicle at any time on any street within a designated painted yellow street box adjacent to an intersection. (Ord. No. 10-38 § 1)

    So you could get a ticket if you hang over
