I am on the waiting list to get a student parking sticker for the parking lot but until then I don't think I can park inside. On some of sidewalks also say 2 hours parking but other next to me school does not have that sign does it apply there? Thanks

In California, unless otherwise marked, the parking spaces on the STREET are public. The homeowner cannot claim those spaces as his.
Be very careful about looking for signs that restrict parking is some way. Many signs are set up to cover a length of curbside such as, "No Parking from Here." "No Parking to Here.:

it should be ok, just do not park anywhere in front of the drive way, im talking not even an inch. But i also know of certain neighborhoods that require special stickers, but there will be a sign showing it. Best thing to do is to is either flag down a police officer, or call the police (non emergency line) explain the situation, and ask if a unit can come buy and see the area. They can better explain the law in your area.
p.s. don't ask the owner of the house. They may give you wrong info. This happened to me. The owner said it was his spot, and that he needed it because he was handicapped. He wasn't and he also had a wide open drive way.

As long as there isn't a time limit/ no parking sign..you should be good. Also, don't park within 10 feet of someone's driveway.

Don't ask the owner of the house. They don't own the street. If there's no time limit you can park there all day.
Check your driver's manual/study book for parking distances to driveways and fire hydrants, though.

I doubt it’s illegal, but it’s certainly very inconsiderate to do this without permission from the homeowner, and as a homeowner I wouldn’t give my permission for it.
Take the bus or carpool with friends until you get your parking sticker.

You should really ask the homeowner who's house you intend to park in front of if it is okay with them. Expain what you said here, and request their permission.

probably doesn't apply. i would suggest seeking permission to park there, though.

If you're blocking their driveway, then your car will be towed, otherwise no.
