Unlawfully Parking in a Cul-de-Sac

It is unlawful to pull straight to the curb in a cul de sac per Virginia code
§ 46.2-889. Location of parked vehicles. "No vehicle shall be stopped except close to and parallel to the right edge of the curb or roadway, except that a vehicle may be stopped close to and parallel to the left curb or edge of the roadway on one-way streets or may be parked at an angle where permitted by the Commonwealth Transportation Board, the Department, or local authorities with respect to highways under their jurisdiction." If this was an emergency this delay of having to back up could be costly.
