I was parked in the middle of an avenue about 150m long. At one end there is a no parking sign with arrows pointing in both direction and at the other end there is a no stopping sign pointing only towards the final 2 meters of the street. Am I allowed to park in this street? How far does the no parking rule extend?

A 'No Parking" sign applies to a "length of road", which is defined to mean the road in the direction of the arrow until:
- a parking sign displaying an arrow in the opposite direction;
- a yellow edge line on the road;
- a t-intersection; or
- a dead end.
