The operator of a vehicle shall not stand or park such vehicle in a roadway other than parallel with the curb and with the two right-hand wheels of the vehicle within one foot of the regularly established curb line, except that upon those streets which have been marked for angle parking as provided in this chapter vehicles shall be parked at the angle to the curb indicated by such marks; and provided, however, that the operator of a vehicle may stop and stand such vehicle as close to the curb line as possible for such period of time only not to exceed fifteen minutes, as may be necessary to receive or discharge passengers, or to load or unload merchandise or materials. The council is authorized to determine by resolution upon what streets angle parking shall be permitted and to indicate such places by painting lines upon the surface of the roadway to indicate the proper angle for parking.
