Parking a Carver S+
Parking rules for three-wheeled vehicles vary from one
region to another. This means that in some regions
you may park along the road, where permitted, and in
parking spaces. In other regions, you can also park on
the pavement. Please contact your local council for the
appropriate regulations.
Traffic regulations will depend on what type of Carver
you’re driving and how your vehicle is registered. Please
contact your local council for the appropriate regulations.
