Is it legal to park in someone’s driveway in Nevada? What the law says

As Nevadans are getting ready for family and friend cookouts and summer parties, they may be looking for a place to park in residential areas. It may be tempting to park near your neighbor’s driveway, but people should first know what’s allowed.

After all, as annoying as it is to have to park far away from your destination, a large fine and a tow is far more inconvenient.

Here’s what the Nevada law says about parking in front of your neighbor’s house, near their driveway, and on a public street.

Can I park in my neighbor’s driveway?

No. Unless you are a United States Postal Service worker, it is prohibited in Nevada to park “within 5 feet of a public or private driveway.”

Can you park in front of your neighbor’s house in Nevada?

Unless a permit is required or other official signage on a street notes special parking requirements, it is legal to park on any public street. That includes in front of your neighbor’s house, as long as it is not blocking their driveway.

Can you park in front of your neighbor’s house?

Unless a permit is required or other official signage on a street notes special parking requirements, it is legal to park on any public street. That includes in front of your neighbor’s house, as long as it is not blocking or less than five feet from their driveway.

Can I sell my car from my yard?

As long as you keep the number of vehicles you sell from your yard to three personally-owned vehicles per year, it is legal. If you exceed that amount and don’t have a dealer’s license, you could be reported to the Nevada DMV.
