Vehicles may be parked wholly on the verge or footway sign

What it means

This one lets you put the whole car up on the verge or footway, but only where the sign says so. You will meet it on narrow lanes with wide verges. Elsewhere you should not park on the pavement, and in London and Scotland you MUST NOT, so look for the sign before you mount the kerb.
