When parking meters are erected adjacent to a space marked for parking, such space shall be a metered parking zone, and no person shall stop or park a vehicle in any such zone for a period of time longer than the parking period designated on the parking meter or without satisfying the conditions designated on the parking meter for the deposit of coins of U.S. currency on the days and during the hours such regulations are designated on such meters as being in effect. Whenever a vehicle shall be parked in an individual parking zone, when parking meter regulations are in effect, coins as required by the designation on the meter shall be deposited in the meter immediately upon parking by the owner, operator or passenger of the vehicle.
