Curbside Road Parking Rules - meanings

[bbi1]

What does a yellow rectangle with a yellow diagonal cross on the road mean? Can you park there or not, if the curbside is all painted white? I can't seem to find out online what it means.

 

I believe you can only park where the curbside is painted all in white or if it's black and white.

 

If it's red and white that means no parking. If it's yellow and white it's also no parking, but can temporary load/unload goods or passangers.

 

If it's painted in maroon colour on the road with a Bus Stop, you also can't park there, even if the curbside is painted all in white.

Not sure, park there only if Thais do

Thais park everywhere. Saw on Beach Rd Pattaya today the Traffic Police clamp the wheels and place fines on the windscreens of two cars at the beginning of the road who parked in the maroon Bus Stop area and the red and while curbside markings, but not a car parked part of the way on the yellow rectangle with the yellow cross inside it. This yellow rectangle thing with the yellow cross is just prior to the Bus Stop and just after the Bus Stop.

 

The traffic cops continued along each road placing fines and clamping cars and towing away motorbikes parked in the wrong spots.

I didn't take a photo, but it's a yellow rectangle with diagonal yellow cross on the road, just prior to the maroon colour Bus Stop marking on the road and also the same yellow rectangle with diagonal yellow cross on the road just after the maroon colour Bus Stop painted on the road.

Beach road and Pattaya Tai are kinda special areas where they are sometimes strict about parking

[LosLobo]

In Thailand, a yellow rectangle with diagonal lines on the road typically indicates a designated parking area for motorcycles or small two-wheel vehicles, often with a short time limit, similar to a "motorcycle parking only" zone; the yellow color signifies a temporary parking spot, while the diagonal lines further specify the area for smaller vehicles.

It is similar to this photo, which, I took in front of the Big C Central Marina side enterance. But this yellow box with yellow diagonal lines is at the enterance to the walkway to enter there carpark, so I'm presuming it means 'no parking'??? Motorbikes most of the time don't park on this yellow area, as there are plenty of motorbike parking spaces on either side from one end of the street to the end of the street.

It means no stopping, no parking under any circumstance. Learn the traffic laws and regulations before driving.

That's why I was asking, as you see motorbikes and cars both park on top of this yellow thing on Beach Rd in Pattaya. But from my question, it seems that many people don't even know what it meant, so that means many people have no clue either.

It’s incumbent upon each individual to know the traffic laws before driving. Don’t rely on others for the information. Easy to find on the internet.
