How far must you park from a fire hydrant in Ontario?

In Ontario, it is required to park at least 3 meters (10 feet) away from a fire hydrant. This regulation is in place to ensure that emergency vehicles can access the hydrant quickly and safely in case of a fire. The designated distance helps to prevent any obstruction that might delay firefighting efforts, which could have serious consequences in emergency situations. Parking too close to a fire hydrant can lead to fines and may impede the ability of firefighters to effectively perform their duties. Understanding and adhering to this rule is essential for responsible driving and community safety.
