Do not park on verges without permission from the property owner or on a verge where signage prohibits the action.
Do not park in bays for other types of vehicles (e.g. motorcycles, bicycles, taxis), in rights of way, in a way that obstructs a driveway or footpath or facing against the traffic flow.
In ticket parking zones, ensure that you display your ticket the right side up and in a prominent place, or have a valid EasyPark session started, before you leave your vehicle.

Do not use disabled only parking areas for parking, loading or unloading, unless you hold a valid ACROD permit, even if the vehicle is occupied.
