This is not out in some rural town. This is in Portland, OR about 2 miles from downtown. Personal vehicles this large are simply incompatible with urban living and pressure their owners to continually break traffic law. Technically that Miata is parked as close to the stop sign as it can legally be, but as the Denali doesn’t fit in many places around here it’s owner is compelled to park across both the stop sign and the crosswalk.
Follow up: To whatever bootlicking idiot called PBOT and asked for enforcement on this block, it didn’t help. It made things worse just like I cautioned such actions do in the discussion below. They didn’t ticket the truck (Which was indeed parking in front of the stop sign this morning) but they did ticket just about every-other car parked on this street for non-street safety related things like parked wrong orientation, literal broken window, expired registration, etc. You probably cost my neighbors a few thousand dollars in combined citations for minor procedural issues, now everybody is miserable and the truck is still parked there. Please, never ever do that again. Your fantasy of calling law enforcement to fix all the problems is not what happens in real life. It doesn’t matter who they are, NEVER CALL THE COPS ON YOUR NEIGHBORS.
Assholes exist everywhere. But if you regulate against this sort of vehicle and design infrastructure that does not accommodate them, the local assholes can not / will not asshole in this specific way.
I assume you live in the US? How likely do you think such a regulation is in your lifetime?
Likely enough that it’s worth ignoring pessimism to the contrary, though if I had to bet on what ends luxury jumbo trucks I’d wager that the economic entropy of the market takes the prize first.
