In big cities, parking a car can be a real quest due to limited space, heavy traffic and a large number of vehicles. Winter conditions make the situation even worse, as parking spaces become even fewer. And it's not even that the parking lot or the entrance to it can be covered in snow. Leaving a car in certain places in winter is simply dangerous. Experts have named four popular places among motorists where parking in the cold season is absolutely forbidden.
1. Hills or slopes
Leaving your car on an icy road on a slope is not the best idea. Your car can simply slide down and get damaged. The worst thing is if it damages another car or hits a pedestrian.
2. Snowdrifts
If you see a snowbank next to an empty space, it's better to look for another parking location. If you leave your car here, it's quite possible that upon returning you will find that your car is already covered in snow.
3. Under trees or buildings
A typical habit of motorists is to park their cars under trees or close to buildings. In winter, icicles can accumulate on them, which have the property of falling uncontrollably and damaging cars.
4. Near the roads
In poor visibility, your car may be hit by another vehicle. In addition, snow removal equipment can quickly turn a car parked on the side of the road into a large snowdrift.
