HCC §24-198
How to park in marked spaces and exceptions
Read the official text at hawaiicounty.gov ↗The county can create marked parking spaces for parallel or angle parking. Once spaces are marked, drivers must park inside them, except for oversized vehicles. Parking in freight-loading zones is not covered by this rule.
