Parking in front of the house

[squeesix]

in front of a private driveway, yes.

R.A. 4136 was passed in 1964, it's an entirely different world 50 years since then.

No offense too, (i'm on your side)--- but if that homeowner has its own car too( or shall i say 2nd/3rd car(s)), where do you want him to park his? sa tapat ng kanyang kapitbahay or dun mismo sa tapat nya? however, if he doesn't own one, its a different story-baka KSP lang...

Here is a scenario, both adjacent houses of the street have cars, both doesn't a garage, the barangay does not have this one-side-of-the-street parking ruling. Isn't it a first-come-first-serve basis to park in front of their house?

private property is limited to the space that the owner has bought thus in a residential area, it's bbounded by fance to simply identify their property. beyond that, that is already public domain as long as there is no law or ordinance that state otherwise, by all means you can park. the owner of the property adjacent does not have the right to get rid of you unless he/she has proof that he bought the piece of land or street.

the same is true to commercial areas where they use the street as parking slot. the guard has no right. ang dami ko ng napagsabihan na guard dahil dyan. kc daw utos ng amo nila or walang paparadahan amo nila. sabi ko, tawagin mo amo mo at dalahin nya titolo ng lupa na pagaari nya itong kalye.

but then, the risk is baka bweltahan ang kotse mo dahil napahya sila not being able to justify their twisted mentality. alam muna naman mentalidad ng iba sa atin, pikon talo.

but then again, parking in the street you take all the risk involve dahil nga public domain, so better have your own garage.

haha, I like this advice

parking in front of one's property is really annoying, may incidente na ganito na nauwi sa massacre ng isang buong family sa cavite. it is really a very serious matter.

So stressful .If I'm buying a house I'll make sure the road is wide enough so there are no parking issues (not that I will leave my car outside)

Neighborhoods with wide streets are either expensive (i.e. Green Meadows) or very far (i.e. Laguna, Cavite).

For many people, they don't (or can't) factor in the cost of adding a garage, or moving to a house with a garage.

Madali sabihin na, "edi wag sila bumili ng kotse". But when faced with the option of enduring long lines, pickpockets, transports strikes, and catcallers, commuters who could otherwise afford their own car (auxiliary costs notwithstanding) would most probably get one. Sans strict implementation of a law against street parking, there's no stopping them.

Water is persistent, it will flow where it can. Dealing with street parking is certaintly more convenient than communiting.

In our village we are probably in the minority. We bought a vacant lot and turned it into a garage. We share the garage with a relative who lives next door. The only time we are parked on the road is when we have parties. Guests are the ones who will have to use street parking.

Even for my business I never use the street for loading/parking. We have a loading bay and ample parking for customers.

I don't blame other people for not having enough parking on their property as there aren't really any laws against that yet, but on our part, we don't want to inconvenience anyone.

The average family here has 2-4 cars and can only park 1-2 inside their lot. The road is wide enough for two sided parking but when a big truck has to pass (firetruck, septic tank drainer, etc.) Only one can pass at a time. Clearly something has to change.

nakakarelate ako dito mga sir...sa subdivision namen, 10 units kami na magkakatabi at dead end sa dulong kanto namin so sa 10 units na yun, 3 with motorcycles and 4 with private vehicles including me. an adventure, avanza, fiesta and G4 mirage which is mine. katapat ko ang kapitbahay ko na "naka ford fiesta na" kasi binenta ang luma nyang Vios recently. we are both considerate naman sa pagpark kasi kung sakaling mali ka ng parada eh di na kakasya ang motor papasok sa dulo namin...nasa gitna kasi kaming 2..the hassle part lang is pag lumabas ang adventure, madalas ako ang nagbibgay though right of way ni adventure is kalsada kung saan nakapark si Fiesta.

May your tribe increase bro!

if their tribe increases, they'll eventually park on the road, also!
heh heh.

My personal take on "Parking in Front of the House"

If you live in a public road (ehem like Dapitan, I remember my college days) please be considerate and find a proper parking spot.

If you live in a private subdivision/village, no issue (as long as the homeowners allow it)

[dr. d]

rule of thumb.
if it is a public road, and there is no law that specifically allows parking there... "no parking". period.
so why are our public roads lined by parked vehicles? because there is no enforcement.

Thanks bro. Kaso mas mabilis dumami yung kabila. My neighbor is into buying and selling of cars...

if their tribe increases, they'll eventually park on the road, also!
heh heh.

Hanggang 2 kids lang kami doc. Wala na balak dumami ☺

Thankfully none of my neighbors leave their cars parked overnight at the street.

2 houses away from our house there is a huge tree with shade and it's the favorite spot in our street pag tamad magpasok sa gate Buti hindi naiinis yung owner ng house and the house across it.

This is quite common among subdivisions inside BF Homes Paranaque. On our street, those cars that will not fit in the garage are parked outside the gate or in front of the house. If your house has a long front adjacent the street, then you can have as many cars parked in front as long as you don't park at your neighbor's side. We just practice courtesy to allow some space for vehicles to pass by.

Our neighbors don't even allow parking in front of their driveway at the opposite side of the street. Kasi hindi daw sila makapagmaneuver!

[dr. d]

on public roads, there are places specifically mentioned in the rule book, as "strictly no parking at all times".
this includes: 5 (or is it 6?) meters from corners and driveways, bridges and approaches to bridges, fire hydrants.
there is even a law against double-parking: not allowed at any time.

it would be a good idea, if private subdivisions adopt these in their areas of influence.

Di naman ganun sa amin. Mayrun pa kaming kunting consideration. In case hirap talaga maniobrahin yung paglabas ng sasakyan, kausapin namin para lang malabas yung sasakyan.

I agree. My neighbor knows that so they don't park in front of their gate that is across our gate. If they do have to park outside, sinasampa nila sa driveway kaya free pa rin ang kalye. I also rarely park outside, so I don't bother them as well.
