§ 15-13.11 Motorcycles, motor scooters, and mopeds.
(a)   The following shall apply to on-street parking of motorcycles, motor scooters, and mopeds in spaces marked for parallel parking on street blocks where there are no designated parking spaces for motorcycles, motor scooters, and mopeds as provided for in subsection (b):
(1)   More than one motorcycle, motor scooter, or moped, or a combination of such motorcycle, motor scooters, or mopeds shall be permitted to park in spaces marked for parallel parking.
(2)   Regardless of the number of motorcycles, motor scooters, or mopeds parked within a metered parking space, the parking fee shall be the rate established for such parking space.
(3)   Any motorcycle, motor scooter, or moped parked within any space marked for parallel parking, shall be parked diagonally (at an angle of approximately 60 degrees to the curb line) with the front end facing the street and in the direction which the vehicles in the near lane of traffic are traveling.
(4)   A minimum clearance of 3 feet at each end of the parallel parking space shall be maintained; provided that only the vehicle parked within the 3-foot area shall be in violation of the minimum clearance requirement.
(5)   No person shall prevent the parking of additional motorcycles, motor scooters, or mopeds when space is available within any parallel parking space.
(6)   Any motorcycle, motor scooter, or moped parked within any parallel parking space shall be entitled to the full parking time permitted by law; provided that in any metered space each and every vehicle parked within such space shall be parked illegally, if the meter displays a violation.
(b)   Nothing herein shall prohibit the director of transportation services from establishing, marking and designating parking stalls specifically for the parking of motorcycles, motor scooters, and mopeds upon any street.
(1)   Wherever parking stalls for motorcycles, motor scooters, and mopeds are so established, marked off, and designated, the driver of such vehicle shall park the vehicle completely within a designated stall.
(2)   If on-street parking stalls or spaces are established, marked off, and designated for motorcycles, motor scooters, and mopeds along any street block, it shall be unlawful for the driver of any motorcycle, motor scooter, or moped to park such vehicle on any portion of such street block, other than in a stall or space so established, marked off, and designated for parking motorcycles, motor scooters, and mopeds along such street block.
(3)   Wherever parking stalls for motorcycles, motor scooters, and mopeds are so established, marked off, and designated, it shall be unlawful for the driver of any other vehicle to park in a stall designated for motorcycles, motor scooters, or mopeds.
(4)   The term “street block” as used in this section means one side of any street, the length of such side extending between two consecutive intersections; or, in the case of a dead-end street, one side of such dead-end street, the length of such side extending between the dead-end and the nearest intersection.
(c)   Nothing herein shall prohibit the parking of a moped in a bicycle rack located on a sidewalk where signage so permits, provided however, that no person shall drive the moped on the sidewalk in violation of HRS § 291C-196(c). For the purposes of this section, a “bicycle rack” means a device erected by the city to be used for the parking of bicycles. This subsection shall not apply to the parking of motorcycles or motor scooters.
