No, I am not, in fact, a cranky old hillbilly judge.

I am, in truth, a secret agent for INTERPOL; I'm chic, debonair, young, and sophisticated.

I am stationed in Monaco.

This is all true.

I know because...well, let's just say I know.

New York defines it this way:
Standing or parking on the roadway side of a vehicle stopped, standing or parked at the curb; in other words, "double parking". (Violation Code 46)

OK then what is stopping because I know I was not standing or parking

According to your original post and 34 RCNY 4-01, you were actually "stopping," "standing," and "parking" simultaneously.

Stopping. The term "stopping" shall mean any halting, even momentarily of a vehicle, whether occupied or not.

Standing. The term "standing" shall mean the stopping of a vehicle, whether occupied or not, otherwise than temporarily for the purpose of and while actually engaged in receiving or discharging passengers.

Parking. "Parking" shall mean the standing of a vehicle, whether occupied or not, otherwise than temporarily for the purpose of and while actually engaged in loading or unloading property or passengers.

You were definitely "stopping" since you weren't moving. But you were also "standing" since you were "stopping" without unloading people, as well as "parking" since you were "standing" without unloading property or people. Both "standing" and "parking" were prohibited.

Shame on you!!!

We prefer the term Appalachian American to hillbilly.
