NO STANDING apparently in Detroit


Since when does STANDING mean PARKING?

No where in the world does STANDING apply to vehicles other than on this show in Detroit.

The camera reacts to people saying they aren't Standing by jerking around on a sign that says "NO STANDING" to act like the people are idiots.

What normal person reads "No Standing" and interrupts that as meaning they can't PARK a car?

reply

Standing is when you stay in the car while it's PARKED in a PARKING spot. What normal person can't comprehend such simple concepts?

reply

It really is shocking that there are so many morons walking and driving amongst us.

How can people not know that standing means sitting in your car waiting for someone or something?

And if you can't sit there in your car, why the hell would you be allowed to park it and leave it?

Many, many morons out there...

There are many "no standing" signs in Chicago as well. Maybe you should turn off Parking Wars and go see the real world.

There are "no standing" laws in all fifty states and District of Columbia. These links will prove what I am saying. Each link is pacific to each state. The links are in the order of when each state became a state.
