Question: 1 / 400

When is it permissible to drive across a sidewalk?

To enter or exit a driveway or alley

Driving across a sidewalk is permissible to enter or exit a driveway or alley because this scenario is often necessary for vehicles to transition safely from the roadway to a private property or vice versa. Lawfully crossing a sidewalk in these circumstances allows drivers to access their homes or businesses while navigating the flow of traffic.

While ensuring that there are no pedestrians on the sidewalk is important, it does not justify crossing the sidewalk under all conditions. Additionally, driving across a sidewalk for any reason when there is no traffic could pose risks and violate pedestrian rights. Parking parallel to the curb is unrelated to crossing sidewalks, as it typically involves stopping a vehicle without traversing the sidewalk itself. Therefore, the correct context for driving across a sidewalk is specifically related to accessing driveways or alleys.
