Mr. Rhetorical strikes again!Have you looked in to the definition of a "roadway" by any chance?
(It's ok, I'll give you one free pass on this, but that's all you're getting OP!)
And before you ask:VTL said:§ 140. Roadway. That portion of a highway improved, designed, marked,
or ordinarily used for vehicular travel, exclusive of the shoulder and
slope. In the event a highway includes two or more separate roadways the
term "roadway" as used herein shall refer to any such roadway separately
but not to all such roadways collectively.
andVTL said:§ 118. Highway. The entire width between the boundary lines of every
way publicly maintained when any part thereof is open to the use of the
public for purposes of vehicular travel.
andVTL said:§ 134. Public highway. Any highway, road, street, avenue, alley,
public place, public driveway or any other public way.
and finally,VTL said:§ 129-b. Parking lot. Any area or areas of private property near or
contiguous to and provided in connection with premises having one or
more stores or business establishments, and used by the public as a
means of access to and egress from such stores and business
establishments and for the parking of motor vehicles of customers and
patrons of such stores and business establishments.
In a nutshell, public parking lots are usually considered "highways" for purposes of the VTL.VTL said:§ 129-a. Parking area of a shopping center. An area or areas of
private property totaling at least one acre, near or contiguous to and
provided in connection with premises having one or more stores or
business establishments, and used by the public as a means of access to
and egress from such stores and business establishments and for the free
parking of motor vehicles of customers and patrons of such stores and
business establishments.
Good luck.
