Wait, is double parking allowed anywhere?

Pretty common at airports; of course, the `parking` only lasts a few minutes at most.

It’s common but almost always illegal based on the posted signage.

Yes, please visit LA.

Edit: Not 'allowed' but people do it constantly. Regular drivers, delivery drivers, city workers, construction trucks, etc. There may be laws but very little enforcement.
