Question: You may NOT park within how many metres of a fire hydrant (typical rule)?

Answer options:

  • 1 m ✅ 3 m
  • 5 m
  • 10 m

Correct answer: 3 m

Explanation: Ontario's Highway Traffic Act and the MTO Driver's Handbook state that you must not park within 3 metres of a fire hydrant. This official rule ensures that emergency vehicles have immediate, unobstructed access to the water source during a fire. The alternative options of 1, 5, and 10 metres are incorrect because they do not reflect this legally mandated limit; 1 metre is too close, whereas longer distances like 5 or 10 metres apply to other restricted zones like intersections or crosswalks. Memorizing precise regulatory distances is highly relevant for the G1 exam, as examiners frequently test these specific parking restrictions to ensure safe roadside habits.
