    Does drivers manual or any vehicle & traffic laws have anything about NOT parking on the curve of the road?

    If parked vehicle on the curve was side swiped or rear-ended, who is at fault?
    Thank you.

    Why would you consider parking there? Why set yourself up to potentially be hit?

    no, no space. Actually, if anyone will have to pass parked car he will have to cross over to opposite lane.

    It only would apply in the state it was in.

    Like only the Laws of The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania apply here.

    Then sometimes different Townships and Cities have different laws.

    This is something your Insurance Company needs to get involved in if there investigators can prove the vehicle was parked illegal your good to go.

    You right, i'm looking for ny law but law from other state would set me on the right track. %99 insurance cases will go by what police say and will not investigate unless it's a big claim.

    Short answer.
    In the event it is necessary to stop, park, or stand the vehicle on the roadway or any part of the roadway, an unobstructed width of the highway opposite the vehicle shall be left for the free passage of other vehicles and the vehicle shall be visible from a distance of 500 feet in each direction upon the highway.

    Could you help me understand how law uses word HIGHWAY in this context?

    S 1201. Stopping, standing, or parking outside of business or
    residence districts. (a) Upon any highway outside of a business or
    residence district no person shall stop, park, or leave standing any
    vehicle, whether attended or unattended, upon the paved or main-traveled
    part of the highway
    when it is practicable to stop, park, or so leave
    such vehicle off such part of said highway, but in every event an
    unobstructed width of the highway opposite a standing vehicle shall be
    left for the free passage of other vehicles and a clear view of such
    stopped vehicles shall be available from a distance of two hundred feet
    in each direction upon such highway.


    In American law, the word "highway" is sometimes used to denote any public way used for travel, whether major highway, freeway, turnpike, street, lane, alley, pathway, dirt track, footpaths, and trails, and navigable waterways;[4] however, in practical and useful meaning, a "highway" is a major and significant, well-constructed road that is capable of carrying reasonably heavy to extremely heavy traffic.

    ok i found this state definition:
    S 118. Highway. The entire width between the boundary lines of every
    way publicly maintained when any part thereof is open to the use of the
    public for purposes of vehicular travel.

    This sounds like the kind of question you should be asking a lawyer, not random dudes online who happen to drive the same type of vehicle.
