The provisions of this chapter imposing a time
limit on parking shall not relieve any person of the duty to observe
other more restrictive provisions prohibiting or limiting the stopping,
standing or parking of vehicles as set forth in N.J.S.A. 39:4-138,
any other New Jersey statute or as hereinafter provided.
A.
Upon the declaration of an emergency, there shall
be no parking upon streets or sections of streets where temporary
emergency no-parking signs are displayed. The Chief of Police or,
in his absence, the ranking police officer is authorized to declare
an emergency and to direct the posting of emergency no-parking signs
when weather conditions, accidents, fires and public celebrations
dictate or require the avoidance of hazards or other conditions which
interfere with the free flow of traffic. Notification that the emergency
no-parking signs are being or will be posted shall be given to the
operator or owner of any vehicle which has been parked prior to the
posting of the signs.
B.
Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in violation
of this section shall be deemed a nuisance and a menace to the safe
and proper regulation of traffic, and any police officer may provide
for the removal of such vehicle. The owner shall pay the reasonable
costs of removal and storage which may result from such removal before
regaining possession of the vehicle.
C.
The effectiveness of this section is contingent upon
the signs being erected as required by law.
