In the United States, there’s a law that says that parking is not allowed within 50 feet of a fire hydrant. However, the office that creates parking spaces appears to be in a different department (or maybe on a different planet with Frasier) from the one that decides where to put these emergency water sources. I see this sort of thing periodically, but I wonder if you’ve ever noticed how many parking spaces are placed next to them. It feels like entrapment to me.
