Which side of the road should you park when waiting for the bus

FYI- In PG county, Middle and High School bus zones start 2 miles from the bus stop.

Op here. To the pp who asked, there are no legal parking spots. It's a narrow residential street close to the main road. Even without snow, if cars were parked next to each other on both left and right side of road, but facing opposite direction, the direction they would be going in, another cannot pass through.

Seriously these parents need to just drop off and there wouldn’t be this problem.

This is the most useless response. What do you expect the school to do about parking on a public street?

DP here,

Bus stops get moved all the time, and if there is a safer place for the bus stop they will take that suggestion.

How big are the school boundaries (or whatever you would call it)? Two miles is nuts. That’s not a bussing service.

This is rude and entitled of the parents, no one should park there. Again, drop and go. If it’s a narrow residential street the kids can safely wait there. Why are these parents doing this? I’m sure all the houses there love that there are all these idling cars blocking their way to work EVERY DAY bc god forbid these tween snowflakes have to stand in the rain on a side street.

Well maybe it’s because the teens can’t wear rain jackets or take umbrellas because there is nowhere to put these things at the local schools

Only one house with an older couple close to the bus stop and they have a long driveway. No complaints from them so far. We see the man picking up his recycle bin or trash can sometimes. But yes, other cars will be inconvenienced going around our cars. It's as if they know the pattern now including the bus timings and we see those cars go 5 minutes prior because they are stuck behind us in the mornings if they don't.

PP again. Not all the kids are tweens. It is an ES group stop so you see a mix of both tweens and k, 1st, 2nd, 3rd grade kids.
